Airy classic
A tall, matte gold vase forms the base for this airy arrangement. In a frame of date branches (Phoenix dactylifera) and Hydrangea, Crocosmia 'Peach Melba', Rosa polyantha and Ranunculus Magical Salmousse are firmly incorporated. The spatial image remains light and elegant - partly due to the use of only a few flower species in generous quantities.
Powerful simplicity
On a light frame, a visually strong rhythm is created by the reappearance of three types of fresh materials: Allium siculum between tufts of Pennisetum alopecuroides 'Blondie' and pampas grass (Cortaderia selloana). The culms are fixed with cold glue. The shadow play emphasizes the tight formal language.
Dialogue
A round panel is covered with satin silk printed with leaves and flowers via the ecoprint technique. Around the panel is floral work that reflects the print to create a dialogue between textiles and flowers and greenery. The materials, including Eryngium, dried Ammi majus, Asparagus falcatus 'Wild', Rosa polyantha and rosehip, match the mood of the print. Natural, sophisticated and layered.
Imprint in clay
Fresh flowers and leaves are pressed into clay; the negatives are cast in plaster into refined reliefs. The transience of autumn tangibly captured in form and texture.
Green embraced
An airy heart-shaped wire frame in the 'crush' technique forms the base, wrapped all around with finely feathered Asparagus setaceus 'Plumosus' and secured with green bouillon wire. Injected with glue, the foliage remains nicely intact. Two compact flowers of Phalaenopsis bring light and focus to the green center.
Berry heart in simplicity
A small simple heart with a skin of tightly pinned Hypericum berries on a red heart-shaped Styrofoam base. The drying value causes the berries to darken, shrinking slightly, allowing the subtle red of the base to shine through later. A single Gloriosa sets a graceful line - the art of omission applies here.
