Our Story

Behind the Bench

Our journey began with a simple mission: to spread love through the experience of flowers.

From a simple flower jar to our grandest installation, every arrangement is crafted with intention right here in our Matakana studio. We pour kindness, creativity, and care into every single design—ensuring that every person who receives a piece feels valued, included, and celebrated.

Our Signature Style: Garden Rustic

Our house style is defined by nature itself. We lean into a "Garden Rustic" aesthetic—designs that feel organic, texturally rich, and effortlessly sophisticated. Instead of rigid, overly manicured arrangements, we celebrate the natural movement of stems, the inclusion of unexpected botanical elements, and a humanist, crafted feel. It’s wild, it’s intentional, and it’s deeply connected to the New Zealand landscape.

International Design Expertise

Our work is grounded in global design traditions and rigorous technical skill.

Our studio expertise combines the exceptional standards of European floristry—backed by intensive, three-year master florist training in the Netherlands—with award-winning design perspectives shaped by years of living and working in America and Japan.

These influences bring a world-class level of artistry home to the Matakana Coast.

Mindful Design & Sustainability

We buy directly from our trusted local grower during the warmer months when the fields are in full, vibrant bloom, minimising our footprint and supporting our community.

To honour every stem that enters our studio, we carefully air-dry our unsold fresh market blooms, giving them a second life as enduring statement pieces in our Everlasting Floral Collection.

Your fresh flowers are hand-delivered locally along the Matakana Coast using our zero-emission electric van, keeping our footprint as light as possible.
