U. What is the thing you consider the most when arranging flowers?

C. The vase, surroundings and of course, the flowers. Most of all, I like to work with flowers in season. Picking the flowers always comes naturally to me - I know, when I see them.  To me it’s always been a big pleasure finding objects such as vases or old pots and work with the piece I’m creating in, in mind. Lastly, I enjoy letting the space I’m working inspire me. 

 
U. What is your design philosophy and where does your inspiration come from?
C. I don’t think I necessarily have a philosophy. I like to do flowers because it's fun. I love that flowers are pure beauty and for most people it’s easy to access. A natural and living thing that is there to cherish. 

 
U. What is this flower you used to express your feeling about our brand ‘Urbanic30’ and why did you pick this flower?

C. It's actually a flower that I used not to enjoy too much. It’s called a Shrubby Cinquefoil and it would always be this flower growing as the only green thing on parking lots and boring public places. I recently moved to Stockholm and never before have I seen it as a cut flower. When cut, it almost looks like cherry blossoms or small delicate bush roses. And they are in season. I chose them because i suddenly found them very modest and sweet. They're easy to make look very extravagant. I really enjoyed them and I think you should too.
