Floral  Tides 

10-16 May

with Vivi (Vivko Studio) & Otti

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

Come spend a week with us, following the pace of the land and sea. Vivi and Otti share their playful approach to flower arranging. We’ll forage, harvest and make beautiful things together, no matter your experience level. Evenings are for farm-to-table meals, wine, and long conversations.
