Flowering for Drunk Elephant

The direction we were given was airy, dream-like, wispy, and moody, with a focus on colours -  shades of blues, greens, and pops of white.

Blue is considered a calming colour, reflective of the sea and sky. Blue can help to when seeking to reset a busy mind whenever life gets a little chaotic. Blue can calm worries and signal support. It is seen as trustworthy, dependable and committed. The colour of the sky and ocean, blue is perceived as a constant in our lives.

 As an Earth colour, green is extremely grounding. In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it helps to take us back to nature, such as the rolling countryside, lush woodlands, and rain forests. Its calming and peaceful nature aids in combating any anxious feelings, while stimulating love, balance and harmony in the body.

Florals found in our designs included dyed blue tulips, blue delphiniums, viburnum, matricaria, ammi, blue tweedia, soft mauve irises, eryngium thistle, plumosa, soft blue muscari, white kangaroo paw, hanging green amaranthus, and other airy fillers and foliage styled in various neutral vessels.
