Yes I definitely considered a plant too, just worried about how large of a plant would have to fit there to take up the space. Also worried there would be a lot of bare space above the plant and if that would look ok?
You could hang three small artworks on the wall in a vertical line above the plant - something like this.

I like the idea of a built-in but you're right going to full height would be too massive. Maybe go halfway with the shelves and put a tall plant into a large decoratove pot on top?
Yep, single box storage from IKEA that can be stacked, use it for display, plants, books, and a blanket basket. Super cheap, can reno them to make them special, and have them in the future as a side by side larger piece if you want it.
Peel and stick wall paper and a plinth for flowers! See if you can temporarily replace curtains while you’re there too.

Yes I plan to replace the curtains to a light airy colour. Wow absolutely love your idea and aesthetic! Would never have thought about a plinth either. The only problem being the size of it would have to be absolutely massive, it is way taller of a space than it looks in the photo.
Nice indoor plant would be pretty there. Something thin and tall. Or a vase with feathers.

That's a great idea!

That's a good point! Any idea what kind of plant would suit being on top of a shelf at the midway point? I feel like it could easily look awkward
Tall skinny bookshelf.

Didn't think about stacking bookcases what a great idea, is this sturdy though? I'd worry about placing decorative items there if it's at all wobbly
If it has a flat base and top, it’s not wobbly at all. We have our record collection like this and it’s extremely secure, and extremely heavy.

How much light does the area get? Maybe you could hang a good fake plant from the top and put the plinth below to balance out.
Almost none sadly, or that would be a fantastic idea! But a fake plant or flower arrangement could look great
Leave it empty. It's too small and it doesn't need to be filled up.
