At CG Hunter, we believe that a truly beautiful home is one that engages all your senses, not just your eyes. By thoughtfully incorporating elements that appeal to sight, touch, smell, sound, and even taste, you can transform any space into a harmonious sanctuary. Let us show you how our products can help you create a home that’s not just seen but felt, heard, and experienced on every level.

1. Sight: Elevating Your Visual Aesthetic

The most obvious sense when decorating is sight. A home should reflect who you are while creating a peaceful and beautiful environment. Start by focusing on key pieces like our Charlotte Entertaining Collection. Whether it’s a creme tray or a cake pedestal, each item brings a timeless elegance to your space. Neutral tones combined with simple, refined lines make these pieces not just functional but visually stunning, giving your home an air of sophistication.

For greenery that’s just as beautiful as it is low-maintenance, consider our Laurel Tree. This faux tree is designed to stand tall and bring life into any room, its realistic leaves adding depth and richness to your space. Its lush texture is visually calming, offering a natural focal point.

2. Touch: Adding Texture for Comfort

Engaging the sense of touch is all about texture. Soft, tactile elements make your home feel warm and welcoming. The Olive Tree is a perfect example—its lifelike leaves and detailed bark offer a rich texture that enhances the natural feel of your room. Paired with a handcrafted woven basket or a rustic planter, it adds a layer of depth and dimension that’s pleasing to both the eye and the hand.

Don’t stop at greenery—consider layering soft throw blankets, woven rugs, and plush cushions to create a cozy, inviting space. The mix of smooth surfaces from our trays and tactile foliage from our plants will provide an exquisite balance that your guests will love to both see and touch.

3. Smell: Scenting Your Space

Scent is one of the most powerful ways to influence mood, and it’s often an overlooked element in home decor. Adding a subtle, inviting fragrance can completely transform your home environment. Pair the fresh, green look of the Eucalyptus Tree with the scent of nature. Consider placing essential oil diffusers or scented candles in your space that evoke earthy, woodsy tones, such as cedar, eucalyptus, or sandalwood. This will enhance the natural vibe created by your faux plants and trees.

For entertaining, scented candles set the mood and create a welcoming atmosphere that leaves a lasting impression.

4. Sound: Setting the Mood

While sound may not be the first thing that comes to mind in interior design, it’s a crucial element for creating ambiance. Imagine the gentle rustle of leaves in the wind. While our faux Willow Eucalyptus Tree may not make noise, you can still evoke the essence of nature with a calming playlist of gentle rainfall, wind through the trees, or soft instrumental music. Incorporating soft background noise creates a tranquil space where you can relax, unwind, and feel connected to the natural world.

In smaller spaces, use soft fabric wall hangings or textured curtains to absorb excess noise, creating a quieter and more peaceful environment.

5. Taste: The Art of Entertaining

Finally, engage the sense of taste through thoughtful entertaining. Your home becomes a haven for sharing food and drink with loved ones, and that’s where the Charlotte Entertaining Collection shines. Whether you’re serving seasonal treats on our creme trays or setting up an elegant fall tablescape with our mango wood serving boards, taste is elevated when your presentation matches the sophistication of your home.

Consider adding bowls of seasonal fruits or treats to match your overall decor. A touch of nature, paired with artful displays, will create a feast for the senses and bring your home decor full circle.

Bringing It All Together

Creating the perfect home interior is about more than just aesthetics—it's about crafting an experience that resonates with all five senses. At CG Hunter, our designer-curated pieces, from the Faux Tree Collection to our Charlotte Entertaining Collection, are designed to help you build a home that feels as good as it looks.
