Why Tropical Works for Meeting Rooms
Tropical can work well in a meeting room when you balance the style's core elements with the room's functional needs. Focus on bold botanical prints and palm motifs while ensuring the space still serves its purpose: meeting rooms provide dedicated space for team meetings, presentations, video conferences, brainstorming sessions, and client interactions. they should support focus, collaboration, and professional presentation. Select materials like Rattan and wicker or Bamboo that can handle the demands of this room.
When designing a tropical meeting room, consider technology integration (screens, video conferencing). Tropical design typically addresses this through vibrant greens, corals, and turquoise. Also keep in mind the room's bright, even ambient lighting and meeting supplies (markers, pads) when selecting furniture and finishes.

Space & Budget Guidance
Small Space Tips
In small spaces, use tropical style strategically. One accent wall of botanical wallpaper can make a huge impact. Choose one or two medium-sized plants rather than crowding with many small ones. Use tropical patterns on pillows or curtains rather than large furniture pieces. The bold colors can actually make small spaces feel more intentional and designed. For a small meeting room: Small meeting rooms (huddle rooms, 4-6 people) need efficient layouts. Round tables foster discussion. Mounted screens save table space. Keep simple to avoid cramped feeling.
Large Space Tips
Large spaces can embrace tropical maximalism fully. Layer multiple botanical patterns, create plant groupings at different heights, and use statement furniture like peacock chairs. Consider tropical wallpaper on multiple walls or even ceilings. Include a bar cart styled with tropical accessories. This is where the style really sings. In a larger meeting room: Large meeting rooms (12+ people) can include multiple screens, advanced audio systems, and tiered seating. Consider divisibility for flexibility.
Budget-Friendly
Start with plants—they're the most cost-effective tropical statement. Shop IKEA for affordable rattan pieces. Target and H&M Home offer tropical-print pillows and textiles. Use removable wallpaper for a botanical accent wall. Thrift stores often have vintage rattan pieces that just need cleaning or spray paint.
Luxury Approach
Source vintage rattan from 1stDibs or specialized dealers. Install designer wallpaper like de Gournay or Pierre Frey botanicals. Invest in custom rattan furniture from makers like Soane Britain. Commission original botanical artwork. Consider imported Indonesian or Philippine craftsmanship.
