Floral artist Franca Logan-van den Berk is originally from the Netherlands but has now lived in New Zealand for 18 years. Franca has been a floral designer for over 30 years and has given countless demos in Canada, England, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan and in New Zealand for NZPF, FASNZ and Interflora New Zealand since 1995. In New Zealand, she is the owner of floral design studio Florienne in Takapuna, Auckland.Projects Franka is most proud of are the two gold medals from the New Zealand Flower & Garden Show 2017 and 2018. These were obtained for large installations of handmade metal rods and wire frames. Franka's ambition in the future is to create more such large, biologically fully compostable installations using plants from her own garden.
