How to Become a Professional Flower Designer
DI've been working with flowers for over twenty years, and I'm happy because my profession coincides with my passion! I create arrangements for events and weddings, produce editorial content for brands, and organize workshops and flower experiences. I pass on and share my skills and professionalism by training professionals and anyone who wants to learn the art of floral design. I've been teaching courses through the Silviadeifiori Flower School for 18 years now, and I can assure you that word of mouth is our calling card.
What is the Flower School?
The Silviadeifiori Flower School is not just a school but a garden to cultivate the soul.
I will accompany you into this wonderful world of nature and beauty, showing you how to transform an emotion, a thought, an image into something magically real.
Our school is the most quick and effective way to acquire all the tools necessary to move with complete safety and independence. Compositional lines, proportions, and knowledge of materials are the pillars that will enable you to create any type of composition with the necessary independence!
Entrepreneurial skills such as logistics, planning, and communication will be key to making your business a success: remember that creativity is nothing without control!
The school offers various training opportunities, not only in floral design but also in event, wedding, and party planning.
Let's start with the basics:
Well begun is half done!
Whether you already have experience in this field or you are just starting out, acquiring the right basic techniques is essential.
For this reason I have created a specific path: The Basic Path.
This course is designed for both beginners and those who already have some experience with flowers but want to learn the techniques for creating classic and modern floral arrangements.
This formula will give you all the skills you need to start your own business!
In detail, the basic courses consist of:
- Introduction to the Floral Design Profession
- Basic Course Level 1 (first compositional schemes, classical and modern style);
- Basic Course Level 2 (the development in technically more complex compositions than classical and modern);
- Basic Course Level 3 (a day dedicated to applying the techniques and compositional schemes acquired in the first two sessions);
- Basic Course Level 4 (day dedicated to the composition of large compositions, planning and implementation).
Each session will include a theoretical section, focusing on the seasonality and preservation of flowers, the use of color, and assembly techniques, from the simplest to the most complex.
Once you've completed the basic course, you'll be able to begin moving forward with confidence and ease, giving shape to each of your scenographic projects. You'll thus have the tools to finally give voice to your personal artistic identity and begin this profession with full awareness.
But not only basic courses, in our training proposal you will also find more specific and advanced courses on floral design, such as the advanced bouquet course, also available in version online.
All our basic courses are held in Lombard Flor.
Online courses:
Yes, dear flower, you understood correctly, the Flower School is also online!
The learning objectives are the same as those of the in-person courses, but the teaching methodology is profoundly different, tailor-made for this type of communication and the result of over 20 years of teaching experience.
These aren't just videos, but an exchange, a direct and dynamic relationship with me, your teacher. I'll take you by the hand, guiding you step by step through each lesson, including corrections of your homework.
What does taking an online course mean? Taking time for yourself, for your own education and personal growth, from wherever you want and in your free time.
Let me introduce you InLab , the online section of our school, so you can attend whenever and wherever you want.
What types of courses will you find in the online section? InLab's online courses are developed and focused on three main areas: stylistic technique, botanical knowledge, management, and strategy.
You will be able to review the courses multiple times and upon completion of each one you will be able to download a certificate of participation.
Remember: having attended the Silviadeifiori Flower School is like having a pass to enter the world of Floral Design!
I'd say you have everything you need to get started!
Not just Floral Design:
As anticipated, not only floral design courses but also courses for Event & Wedding Designer.
My team of industry professionals and I have created a full immersion program dedicated to training the professional figure of the Event & Wedding Designer!
As always, the program and content of this course are designed to be effective, practical, and provide you with everything you need to plan and produce an event's scenography.
This course was created to provide a comprehensive overview of the three fundamental moments in event production: the idea, planning, and execution.
The goal of the course is to develop the ability to produce events with a dramatic and, above all, emotional impact, because these are the emotions that will remain in the minds and hearts of your guests.
