Is it true that the aloof architecture flower art can not coexist peacefully with business and life?

Today's topic is a bit out of line for the general florist ~ even for florists who have studied for many years, it is also a difficult problem that has not been figured out yet. Do I have to learn architecture? Can you climb another tall building after you learn it?

First of all, we need to figure out what architectural floral is:

Structural floral art, which originated in the West, is also very popular in China in recent years. The emergence of the architecture is a brand-new revolution in the field of flower art in the world, which not only overcomes the limitations of flower arrangement containers, expands the application space of flower arrangement materials, but also inspires florists' creative inspiration.

Unfortunately, everyone's impression of the structure is not as beautiful as it is said in the entry, and even Peony himself feels that the architecture flower seen in the market is either artificial or ugly, and the structure for the sake of the structure has completely lost the beauty of nature.

However, this is also a very subjective impression, once we have seen a super-beautiful architectural floral art, will we still think so? For example, this Song girl, her architecture class is not only loved by many florists, but also recently won a grand prize--

Architecture Flower of Song

Just concluded the 2019 World Cup Flower Competition China finals and the third "Youni Cup" flower competition successfully concluded (this is held by the International Federation of florists, the world's most authoritative and influential flower competition, held every four years, known as the "Olympic Games"), in the face of the master competition scene, florist Song Huijie (Song) won the third place, let all avant-garde florists boiling.

Compared with the other contestants' preparations (the competition works were ready and sent to the competition scene half a month ago), Song looks a little light and slow, and she is one of the few beautiful florists in the audience.

Let me show you the works created by Song in the preliminary round and the scene of the finals:

In 1927, German physicist Heisenberg said:

In the statement of the law of causality, that is, "if you know the present exactly, you can foresee the future", what is drawn is not the conclusion, but the premise.

Which means it's your future that determines what you do now. I asked Song, do you think you were destined to be a florist from the very beginning?

When I was climbing a mountain with my parents in primary school, I saw a kind of dead branch by the side of the road. Song thought it was very beautiful, so he picked some of the withered branches and plum blossoms and took them home to bottle. At that time, he liked the lines of the withered branches and plum very much, and he put them diagonally out in a short bottle. He felt very happy just looking at them every day.

But at that time, her parents did not understand her and thought it was just a pile of dead grass. When Song grew up, she thought that it was actually a kind of doom.

The joy of flowers and plants was incomprehensible to others, and Song had no idea that he would enter the flower industry in the future. It seems like a natural thing to open a flower shop in Wuhan after graduating from college. I naturally entered the industry without so many reasons, as if everything happened naturally.

Song studied industrial design at the university, and her professional training at the university paved the way for Song's understanding of design. Design ability and design perception actually go deep into all aspects of life, not just visual orientation, which will be of great help to her floral design in the future.

MaxGarden: plant design, imagine the feeling of butterflies flying through it. Plants are the epitome of nature, and the location of each kind of flower can be found.

In the flower industry, the style of flower art is actually a lot of yuan, but the architecture of flower art makes Song quickly stand out among many florists. This unique form of floral interpretation makes Song clear about its future direction.

All her designs come from nature, she said. There are many gifts from nature, and there are always different inspirations and surprises in the face of nature. Song enjoys the pleasure of this design by borrowing it to complete one interesting work after another.

Yingzhi Niyu, the flower designer most appreciated by Song, works shockingly but performs well in detail. This kind of extreme detail handling requires a deep foundation, familiarity with materials, control of details, and a test of imagination, which are lacking by domestic florists.

For the domestic flower market, Song believes that one of the most difficult things at present is the grasp of beauty by florists, and the second is the training of users, which complement each other. There is no aesthetic basis for consumers in the general environment. No matter how beautiful the florists are, it is difficult for them to pay the bill. On the contrary, consumers have a more advanced aesthetic, and florists are disconsolate.

Therefore, domestic florists need to constantly refine their own florist level, but also have the responsibility to educate and train users, this is a virtuous circle.

Many young florists say that they don't want to learn architecture because they see that the structures on the market are not too ugly, or that they are structured for the sake of architecture. They are all showing off their skills, and they have no sense of beauty to speak of, let alone arouse thinking.

After looking at the structure of Song, they opened their eyes. It turned out that the architecture could be so beautiful and fashionable, and Song paid great attention to guiding each florist's design according to his inspiration, so everyone's work was different in Song's class. Behind this, it was Song's good intentions and meticulous preparation.

Song said that he particularly understands people's prejudices about architecture. For flower art, as long as this category serves "people", then there are actually many opportunities to show their talents, and there will be more ways to realize the beauty of flower art, and architecture is just one of them.

Traditionally, architecture is regarded as a work of art. In Song's class, she teaches florists to pay more attention to the functionality of architecture. She teaches everyone to use architecture to improve the production efficiency of daily flower gifts.

For example, to make a large bouquet, the traditional florist takes about 1-2 hours, which is very slow and labor-consuming, but in her class, she will teach students how to use a simple structure to complete a large bouquet with a diameter of more than 1 meter in 20 minutes. this bouquet is beautiful and low-cost, stable and fast, and can be realized quickly for florists.

At the beginning of this year, many florists quickly sold the works they studied at Song into merchandise to customers. These unique designs make them stand out from a large number of monotonous floral products, and the handicapped florists no longer have to worry that the architecture they spend a lot of time on is not good-looking and can not be sold quickly.

Of course, Song teaches not only the technical level, but also the knowledge of floral art, delicate thinking and deconstruction, full understanding of materials, and so on. She let everyone fall to the ground, but also spread a flower lover's heart and virtue, only in awe of nature, you can make a moving design.

As a matter of fact, architecture can be made into decorations, which can be used in both commercial and household space, and can light up the whole space, but on the way to commercialization, architecture requires a lot of practical experience and thinking:

The integration of environment and floral works, the relationship between floral works and people, what role floral works play in space, and what interesting changes this structural work can produce. First of all, you must have your own answer in your heart.

The same question: what is the role of sculpture in public space? Floral works are actually the same for sculpture.

With Song learning architecture, there are many florists. In the floral training industry where there are so many architecture courses and all kinds of masters gather, why do we choose Song, a young post-90s florist designer?

After reading the works of the florists who took the architecture course with Song, and their answers, the answer is not profound: "after learning the architecture course of Song, you can immediately turn what you have learned into product sales."

I have seen some interesting questions:

Are those florists who have studied architecture down and out?

What kind of experience is it to make money from structural floral art?

After reading Song's works, do you have any idea?
