Key Visual Elements of Building Environmental Vibe with Flower Arrangements

Color

The complexity and variability of colors makes it the most active elements among other visual information. The changes in brightness and saturation enable even a single color to appear different, and through the fusion, combination, and gradually changing of different colors, colorful visual effect is displayed. Scientists have found that color can affect our brainwaves which respond to warm colors with enthusiasm and happiness, while to cool colors with sadness. Colors can affect the visual space, bright colors make the space appear larger, while cool and dark colors compress the space. Specific color and flower kind combinations can help create emotional and spatial effects. Flowers with bright colors such as Gerbera, Roses, Tulips, Horseshoe Lilies and Poppies encourage spirit. Flowers with lighter and easy colors such as Hydrangeas, Lilies, Daisies, Starflowers, Jasmine and Musk Flower give sense of tranquility and calming. Light yellow Chrysanthemums, white Musk flowers and pure white Phalaenopsis, grass green Anthurium, and green Platycodon are often used to express grief and condolence.

Shape

Life experience affects visual stimulation by different shapes. Shape may not necessarily cause obvious likes or dislikes, but it makes us instinctively feel harmonious or disharmonious. Round shape make us feel united, plumpness, and nourishment; squares give us faith and make us feel serious and authoritative. Rectangles make us feel symmetrical, balanced and sense of order, while triangles make us feel oriented, distant and conflicts. Long lines show a straight and slender appearance and curves represents freedom and random. The shape and state of the corolla conveys different impression and messages. Peony symbolizes happiness and wealth, Sunflowers represent optimism, Gardenias represent satisfaction, Roses represent enthusiasm, Azaleas symbolize guardian, violets symbolize waiting, Camellia shows compromise, Birds of paradise symbolizes promising future and red Anthurium adds to the auspicious atmosphere. Vases and pots of different shapes and sizes also contribute to different feelings, high and slender glass bottles are symbol of elegance and confidence, while small chubby glass bottles feels relaxed and cozy. Square pots feels classic and vintage. And the giant citrus pots of CNY at shopping center and hotel lobby sends messages of prosperity and wealth.

Lines and Posture

They are rather natural integration of matching flower kinds and lining leaves in abundant shape and size, completed with the beauty of different height and curves, as well as space created by interweaving branches and leaves and the rhythm brought by vivid free lines. In a flower arrangement, florists match different flower kind and side leaves by shape, color and length, and display them nicely to create space and present a consolidated overall style. Various matching leaves are used to create free lines and sense of air. Florist pump vitality to floral art with clever arrangement.

Texture

Past experience forms people’s judgment toward different texture, allowing us to accurately anticipate the other four senses and using effect by merely seeing it. For instance, from the shape of the corolla, we can roughly calculate the blooming time. From the elasticity and gloss of the petal and the plumpness of the petal tips, we know if the flower is well-hydrated. The yellowish and dark spot and patch and the slimy stem tells us whether the flower is fresh and how long it will last in the vase. Whether you choose flower arrangement for indoor decoration or as a gift, fresh flower not only reflect the meticulous attitude and great choice but it also shows heartfelt sincerity.
