Match the bouquet to
the room it lands in

Florists talk about palettes; rooms talk about lines. A bouquet that fights the room looks wrong no matter how good the stems are. Here is the cheat sheet we use when someone sends us a photo of the space.

Japandi and Scandinavian minimalism

Low-contrast rooms in washed timber, linen and off-white. The formula: a single species in quantity, never a mix. Fifteen white ranunculus or a bunch of bare branches in a ceramic cylinder. Colour comes from repetition, not variety. Skip anything dyed.

Industrial loft and concrete

Raw surfaces can take weight. Proteas, anthurium, banksia, callas: flowers that read as objects. Vessels go matte black, steel or concrete. A pastel mix dies visually in a loft, it needs either deep jewel tones or strict monochrome.

Herringbone floors and period details

Federation and Edwardian bones, which Hobart has in bulk. These rooms take softness: garden roses, peonies, ranunculus, trailing jasmine in a cut-glass or footed vase. Avoid stiff geometric builds, they look like a mistake against crown moulding.

Mid-century and colour

Teak, chrome, mustard, teal. The fun rooms. Anemones, dahlias, sunflowers, marigolds in saturated colour blocks, preferably in a coloured glass vessel. This is the one interior where matching the cushion actually works.

The lazy version

If you cannot name the style, order white and green in a plain vase. White reads as intentional in every interior ever built. And if you want to skip the guessing entirely, send us a photo of the room with your order: the same-day service includes a real florist who will match it. Weekly wrappers can also ask for a standing 'house palette' on their subscription.
