Masterclass · experienced florists
Advanced Floral Design
Two weeks of design-first floristry for people who already know the mechanics. Less recipe, more composition — sculptural forms, negative space, ikebana influence and a final portfolio piece built to your own brief.
What you'll learn
The masterclass arc
- Sessions 1–2 — Line & space. Ikebana-influenced composition, negative space, asymmetry and restraint.
- Sessions 3–4 — Form & texture. Grouped and pave techniques, botanical manipulation, unexpected material pairings.
- Sessions 5–6 — Scale & structure. Large vessels, suspended elements, armature-building and transportable mechanics.
- Final session — Your piece. Design, cost and build a signature work with one-on-one critique, photographed for your portfolio.
