Instagram-driven designs: the subtle art of making memories in the 21st century

January 22, 2020

As the image sharing community of Instagram has become increasingly influential among the architecture and design community, creating the so-called “instagrammable” moments, or choosing Instagram-driven designs, has now become a part of architectural briefs.
As a result, bars and restaurants now need to offer more than just exceptional food, drinks and service.
Customers can now make their choice based on the visual content they see shared on the multitude of apps. And while the sublime taste and exceptional flavors are still indispensable, businesses can surely cater to a bigger audience by including a unique eye-catching feature into their interior.
Ultimately, restaurants are in the business of making memories, and photos are the place where we store them.
One of the biggest trends in creating a beautiful instagrammable feature is adding a flower wall backdrop that inevitably attracts Instagram influencers. It is also one of the most affordable ways to spruce up any space.

The Flower Wall Company is always happy to help fashion more instagrammable moments around the world. And being a part of the spectacular ECCO Restaurant of Giordino Hotel in Ascona, Switzerland is definitely one of our most proud moments.

Strolling around the extensive gardens that surround this Tuscan-style hotel feels like stepping into one of Monet’s paintings.
The interior décor reflects the same vibrancy as the gardens. The warmth of the Terracotta floors is accented with bright furnishings of purple and green reminiscent of the hotel’s past all-pink history. A big fireplace, floor to ceiling windows and candlelit evenings complete the welcoming atmosphere.

The culinary highlight of this gorgeous resort is undoubtedly the 2-Michelin-Star restaurant Ecco Ascona. Its excellent aromatic cuisine and puristic simplicity is restaged daily by the ideas of Executive Chef Rolf Fliegauf and his team.

Our society is undeniably being changed by social media. And while many might argue how we ironically stay less connected in this age of smartphones, incorporating instagrammable features into a dining space could encourage us to go out and spend time together when we chase taking that unique photo for the next Instagram post.

You can find this beauty and many other gorgeous walls to add an instagrammable spot to your own business on The Flower Wall Company website.

Feeling Blue? Meet the Pantone Color of the year 2020!

January 20, 2020

Some things come and go, but others are timeless. The Pantone Color of the Year is Classic Blue.

As was evident by the themes of abundant soirees to ring in the new year, the 20s are back!

Refined.

Classic.

Our imaginations hark back to the time when dapper gentlemen and elegant ladies weren’t afraid to celebrate the good times with style and exuberance.

Colors and color combinations create moods and feelings, and classic blue with all of its shades and tones can be a great choice if you’re looking to convey a message of trust, dependability, calm, and intelligence.
In these complicated, chaotic times, what better way to bring comfort and security to your guests than to surround them with the color that psychologists proclaim fills people with a feeling of tranquility?

Blue may not immediately come to mind when you’re thinking about florals, it’s not your first choice for roses, peonies or hydrangea, yet we were oh so excited to create something special around this fabulous hue!

Consider adding a sense of quiet refinement to your social event with our SkyWave flower wall!

With the arrival of the new year, it’s time to start thinking about design and decor trends for the big events you have coming in 2020.

The Flower Wall Company always tries to stay ahead and create something totally fresh to bring your event to the next level.

With classics like cream, pink and red still being extremely popular colors, this year is all about nature with its greens, blue-tinged teal, watery blues, and mineral colors.

Green is the trendy hue for event designs in 2020. The color represents health and wellness, offering a restorative calming quality for guests at your event.

Our “Glamazon” flower wall has been one of the bestsellers for a while, full of nothing but the super lush rich shade of green foliage, in different tropical leaves.

If pure green is not something you’re looking for, and you want both bursts of colors and freshness of foliage we have something just as trendy ready!

One of our most lavish creations to the day is the “Moana Pua” flower wall. Inspired by the iconic tropical views of Samoa and Maui, we tried to create a flower wall that would instantly carry you away into the magical land of invigorating natural beauty. It truly captures the romance and tropical beauty of the Islands.

Blooms and exotic colors of Hawaiian Hibiscus, pink lokelani flowers, the Maui roses in their bright sweet splendor, lush moth orchids with silky-smooth petals and an eye-catching array of real-touch leaves.

There’s no better way to have a fresh start in 2020 than to add a trendy unique flower wall to your upcoming big event. Look no further!

Roses are….Ruby! – A closer look at our Miss Ruby Flower Wall

Roses are….Ruby! – A closer look at our Miss Ruby Flower Wall

Don’t get us wrong, we love creating cream and blush flower walls, but sometimes you need a little color to spice up weddings and events, and what more perfect way to do that than with our Miss Ruby Flower Wall.

What we love about Miss Ruby is the intricate detailing and multi layered effect that comes from using over 25 different kinds of flower. We’ve proudly said before that we are not a factory, nor do we use the low quality blooms from Chinese e-commerce wholesale sites. We hand select pieces from over 15 different suppliers to create stunning, realistic looking flower walls. We don’t outsource, we don’t resell, we create these beautiful floral backdrops in our workshop.

We love the magenta hanging orchids in this flower wall, they sit perfectly in contrast to the strong reds in roses and hydrangea behind it. Red can be tricky to photograph, but with the right camera and expertise you can highlight all of the gorgeous flowers that have gone in to this wall.

We can’t wait to see this Miss Ruby Flower Wall in action and all of the gorgeous images that come with it!

Miss Ruby is available to purchase directly on our online store in our three most popular sizes, or you can purchase a sample for a small fee. As always we accept custom size requests, simply drop us an email with your requirements and we will be happy to provide you with a quotation!

Amazing fade in a custom ombre flower wall

April 21, 2017

We love the ombre trend for wedding and events! The fade effect that never fails to get people talking is here to stay and recently, we absolutely loved creating a custom ombre flower wall for a client in Australia.

Pinterest is full of gorgeous images inspiring people worldwide on how to work this trend into their wedding or event. What we love so much about ombre is that you can incorporate almost any colors you want and make them look like a seamless heavenly blend of hues. Here are some of our favorite ombre images!

Our latest ombre creation

With all these gorgeous inspo images around, it’s no surprise to us that we’ve been creating custom ombre walls for nearly four years. (We’re not sure when a trend actually becomes a mainstay, but we think ombre is around to stay!). Our most recent creation has been for a wonderful client in Australia who wanted a deep red/maroon fade into blush in 2.4m x 2.4m – that’s around 8ft x 8ft.

Ombre Flower Wall in the making

How do we begin with ombre? Well we start by sourcing the florals from our group of preferred partners and trusted suppliers. Not being a factory ourselves means we have amazing flexibility when it comes to choosing blooms. Often we see flower walls created by one factory and they use the same material for a few different designs, meaning no real difference in colors or sizes, which tends to create an unrealistic looking wall. Luckily the colors requested are super popular so even though we didn’t have to custom create the actual pieces, we still sourced 57 different flowers from 16 different suppliers. Yes, you read that right, 57 different flowers from 16 different suppliers!

Why do we do this? We believe the key to achieving a realistic looking flower wall is in the details, and having so many different blooms to work with instantly creates a more luxe, lifelike, memorable floral backdrop.

Sorting through the 57 different kinds of flowers and preparing them for the pattern takes longer than a regular flower wall as working on an ombre wall has to be done in stages to make sure you get the fade that the client is looking for. Some people like it subtle, some people like it quite striking, and we are happy to create both types.

How to order an ombre flower wall

We don’t sell ombre directly on our online store as realistically we wont be able to create the exact same wall each time, and everyone’s color & flower preference is too different to list all options in one place, so we create ombre walls as custom orders. (A custom order doesn’t necessarily mean a higher price!).

Another thing we love about this wall is it’s 3D effect with blooms layered at different heights to make it look realistic and luxe. Gorgeous!
