i always wanted to make a forest and id luke to have indoor specie of tree anyone can suggest one or more
 
The typical leaf of "indoor" trees is too large for anything but a VERY large forest. Maybe willow leaf fig. Chinese elm is a possibility, but they are marginal indoor trees at best.
 
I've seen a few nice willow leaf fig forests, but as JKL said they do have to be on the larger size to look proportional. Do a Google search on a list of most common Indoor bonsai and find one that suits your needs.
 
Grewia occidentalis' leaves reduce quite well, it would make a really nice forest I believe.
 
Size isnt an issue id like to do something quite large and high but mainly im looking to learn about all there is i recently got a new job and bonsai could be an integral part of it if i like it and if im good at it
 
Leaf size and shape is an issue if you want your forest to be convincing..., no matter how big or small you want the end product, go for the species with small leaves
 
I think smaller Brazilian rain trees would make a nice forest and they can be grown indoors with proper lighting. They have compound leaves but the leaflets make it look like they have small leaves.
