Floral Couture | Neill Strain

It is well documented that flowers have a special kind of power. Whether sent in celebration of a significant moment or as a beautifully curated and luxurious floral experience for your home, alluring blooms with their scent, colour and symmetry bring genuine joy, beauty and meaning on a profound level. As designers we look to take a multi-sensory approach to our super-prime brief, creating designs that go beyond the aesthetic to reflect deeper meaning and ‘Thoughtful Luxury’ in practice. Selecting the right flower, arrangement style and scent is critical, and no one does it better or crafts living works of floral art, quite like Neill Strain. Here we talk to Neill about how it all begun, and why he believes working in the industry is a real privilege.
