Contemporary Design workshop

Contemporary floral design involves much more than that of current trends. It is the platform for floral designers to excel and experiment in their own thinking. Quite often their thinking is influenced by what they see around them.They feel form and texture, usually contained in fashion accessories. The seasonal trends of generations past and present have normally been inspired by eminent designers, such as Versace. He himself drew his inspiration from fine artists experimenting in neo-classical colours. Of course, for the professional florist /designer working with floral and foliage products, it is imperative that they understand the limitation of the product and by endearing themselves to the material. They are using plant products and create a design from their own image. It is equally important for a floral designer to recognize the latest trends, usually created for the forthcoming season by current fashion designers and or architectural gurus. Each and every one of us that likes flowers and foliage’s has a magic in our minds.

Our designer, Geoffrey Hughes is responsible for this class. It has been his privilege over the years both to design and produce, or to edit industry magazines and more commercially likewise for clients. We at Flower Design of Britain will help you bring out and develop your abilities through our contemporary courses.

With our lead designers and the world acclaimed ANDREAS VERHEIJEN, Master florist engineer from the Netherlands will be exploring at the London contemporary floral design master class. Join us this late in October in Hammersmith London.
