Balanced

This large, sustainable arrangement spans nearly a metre in width and is built on a striking base made from the roots of the Davallia fern. These roots dry beautifully, allowing the bowl-shaped structure to be reused time and again. The frame beneath – made from thick aluminium wire – is completely hidden, serving purely as a strong technical support. Long strands of fern root have been woven and layered into an intricate, textured network, adding depth and natural movement. Around 200 water tubes are discreetly embedded throughout the design, making it easy to refresh and reuse each one. Though robust in construction, the overall effect is organic and artistic – a perfect balance of structure and softness.

Woven Wave

This playful and airy arrangement showcases a clever mix of sustainability and craftsmanship. A series of recycled vases are wrapped in grasses and secured with delicate gold-coloured wire. The grass is woven through intersecting threads to create a layered, organic texture that mimics the technique of tapestry weaving. The vases are arranged in a flowing line relative to each other. All flowers – both fresh and dried – are compostable. The vases are given a stylish second life in this vibrant display of texture and movement.

Wrapped

In this design, numerous glass test tubes in varying sizes have been individually wrapped in ultra-thin wood veneer, then joined together to mirror the shape of the gold-toned bowl by Ecri Living. Flowers are inserted directly into water-filled tubes, ensuring hydration without floral foam. The result is a decorative base made entirely from botanical and reusable materials – perfect for sustainable design and versatile for future use across different styles and settings.

Tuned

An antique, hand-painted vase with a floral motif serves as both a vase and a source of inspiration. The flowers were carefully selected to echo the vase’s colour palette and floral forms, creating a seamless visual harmony between container and composition. Max made his selection from a large collection of flowers with minimal repetition: ‘A collection of beauty that we continue to discover’. Inspired by the rich contrasts often seen in classic floral still lifes, he paired purple and blue hues with earthy browns and nude tones to create a striking cool–warm contrast, further enhanced by dramatic photography. The arrangement was composed directly in the vase, without support materials.

Mysterious

This arrangement was created in a tall brown vase with rounded shapes and a very narrow opening — far too small to hold such an abundance of flowers on its own. To solve this, Hanneke secured two blocks of OASIS® Renewal Floral Foam on top, allowing for a dramatic and expressive composition. The mood is dark and mysterious, with rich tones of deep red and burgundy adding elegance and depth. In the bold colour palette, only the attentive viewer can discover a beautiful, delicate butterfly.

Theatrical

A flower arrangement bursting with vibrant energy and bold contrasts. OASIS® Renewal Floral Foam set in a Delftware-style vase, the arrange
ment features a striking mix of strong colours – vivid reds, oranges, deep purples, and rich blues – creating a lively, almost theatrical effect. Hanneke stepped outside her usual pastel palette for this piece, embracing hues she often avoids. ‘I normally steer clear of red, white and blue,’ she admits, ‘but I’m really pleased with how it turned out. It was time to show something different.’ The result is a colourful, confident design full of character and movement.
