Are you an aspiring floral designer or floral professional looking to further expand your creativity by adding natural and foam free installations to your repertoire?
At this 4 day hands on intensive course, we will deep dive into the world of Arch’s, exploring various types, their distinct uses, methods of creating and most effective sustainable mechanics.
With our rustic design studio, courtyard flower garden and cut flower field serving as the perfect backdrop, you will learn an inspired, design led, and fresh approach to creating these memorable statement pieces, suitable for ceremonies, exhibitions, photo shoots, events, etc.
Each Day we will start by harvesting and conditioning the flowers needed from our own flower field before getting to work.
We will spend our time immersed in creative conversations and application around design & composition, as I guide you through my approach. We will cover everything from foam-free floral mechanics to selecting product that lends itself to natural floral design with a focus on sustainability, and that sets you up for success; to colour choices and placement, as well as creating movement in your work.
Throughout this course we will discuss safety measures for all types of arches and environments.
Using beautiful varieties of flowers and foliage we will create the following:
- Naturalised Ceremony Arbor
- Deconstructed Asymmetric Arch
- Entry Way Arch
- Suspended Arch
By the end of the 4th day you will leave armed with the foundation required to create your own unique & memorable floral moments, designed to inspire and leave a lasting impression.
The bounds of your own imagination will be your only limit.
This will be a very intimate course with a limit of 4 people to ensure each student has hands on time and support.
