Floral Tides
Picture this...
You wake up with salty air coming through the windows. Breakfast is already on the table. Flowers are waiting; some grown, some foraged, some half-wild. Each morning begins with a fully guided, hands-on workshop focused on a different technique, format, or material exploration. Some days hold one longer immersive session; others may include two shorter guided workshops. Mornings are for making. Afternoons are intentionally open; time to rest, gather materials, refine your work, swim, walk the dunes, or simply do nothing. Evenings are for long tables, shared meals, and relaxed moments around a fire pit with S'mores .
Vivi & Otti share their approach to flower arranging: thoughtful, natural, a little playful.
What you’ll learn, create & take with you
Inspired by this coastline — dunes, driftwood, pebbles, wild edges — we’ll work with what’s in season and build skills you can use again and again.
Across the week you’ll explore:
-
Composition — colour relationships, texture, balance, scale, and visual storytelling
-
Working with varied materials — flowers, fruit, foliage, branches, and found natural objects
-
Seasonal harvesting & foraging — how to gather responsibly and design with what’s available
-
Care & conditioning — pro techniques for longevity and mechanics
-
Wearable florals — crowns and small sculptural pieces
-
Atmospheric table styling — immersive dinner settings with flowers + natural elements
-
Hanging & suspended installations — structure, mechanics, and spatial design
-
One large-scale shared installation — collaborative, expressive, and site-specific
Floral Tides
Come spend a week with us, following the pace of the land and sea. We’ll forage, harvest, and arrange what’s in season, share what we know, and make beautiful things together — no matter your experience level. Evenings are for farm-to-table meals, wine, and long tables.
