Week 1 – European Floral Design

Posted by liz on Apr 10th, 2008

Floral Arrangment Week 1 This Tuesday, Maureen and I kicked off our European Floral Design class by focusing on accentuating the "vertical lines" of the composition.

Goals for the arrangement:

- Accentuate the vertical lines with complimentary colors
(purple and yellow)
- Add a realistic approach w/ a moss covered base
- Create "plant like" groupings of flowers
- Incorporate a bird for interest and to draw the eye to a
definitive location

    It’s becoming clear to me that all levels of design whether it be fine arts, interiors, floral, fashion, etc. all focus on the same principals. Pattern, color, texture, and space all play into creating a well composed design.

    I’ve also become inspired by the simple gesture of giving flowers and how they add joy and life to a space.
