MODERN FLOWER STYLES

Although there are many variations of “Modern Design”, there is a general description in which all forms of modernism have in common. When it comes to Modern Floral Artistry, we see the following general characteristics:

  • Clean, straight lines • Clear glass, stainless steel, chrome and other metals

  • Minimalism

  • Lack of clutter (no accessories such as bows, fillers leaves, filler flowers, limited variety of flowers)

  • Bold colors or single color used for emphasis (Special Occasion, Holiday,etc)

  • Neutral colors such as white used for placement in general design spaces

  • Not a lush or fluffy look and limited in movement

CONTEMPORARY

  • Simple, clean, offers an uncluttered look

  • Typically tall and linear in style all

  • Vases are clear glass, square and tall

  • No accent flowers.

  • Limited greenery

Flower types are limited to about 3 types- Large round flowers (like lilies) in the front Linear, tall flowers toward the back Orchids placed throughout for extension.

Greenery is done with large tropical foliage, accented by bamboo, curly willow, rush or bonsai branches.

LUSH FRENCH COMPACT

Our most popular design. A fusion of modern structure with the lush abundance of a traditional arrangement. Built in a cube or short cylinder with a green leaf wrap.

MODERN ARTISTIC

A design reflecting a modern style with a unique theme. Minimal emphasis on flowers. More attention to the theme. Typically a "Statement Piece".
