The Atelier Carmel design philosophy is simple: our inspiration comes from nature, from all of its intriguing possibilities. Bringing this beauty in, appreciating its grace, its poetry, its fleeting nature and it’s imperfections is what we strive to do every day.
This translates into compositions that are authentic and organic, and just a bit wild. We embrace a flower’s natural personality, it’s movement and texture, to create arrangements that are layered and lush, with that elusive “just picked” look. We like our bouquets to speak of a place, a moment in time…
We focus on local and seasonal products, choosing from a wide variety of blooms and greens that are not commonly used in traditional floral design. Some plants proved so hard to find we’ve even started growing our own little garden of very special treasures. We also squeeze into our crazy summer schedule a weekly foraging “expedition” to search for the few buds, branches or vines that will finish off the look perfectly. We work closely with local growers who experiment and produce original varieties that are mostly ignored by mass markets, or too fragile to ship from overseas.
Inspired by Nature.
Floralia offers flower arrangements custom made for weddings and events. Our flowers are locally grown, handpicked and naturally beautiful
To me, flowers are a passing pleasure that uplifts the heart; it’s no wonder that artists have been admiring them for centuries. When I work with flowers, my intention is to create the mood and visuals of a timeless memory, even if the moment only lasts for one day.
Astilbe is first and foremost a love story about flowers and a team of passionate florists. We are a contemporary studio that offers complete floral services and high quality products. We create unique floral bouquets and arrangements for all occasions, weddings, and events on the island of Montreal and north of the island. Our signature look is largely inspired by english gardens, the seasons, and vibrant colors.
Astilbe is a fresh alternative to traditional floristry. Local, Canadian, seasonal, and fair trade flowers are at the heart of our creations. During our growing seasons, we strive to use 100% local products to help support our local producers. Unfortunately with Quebec’s climate, we cannot use local flowers year round. Our solution is to find other Canadian growers or import from organic farms. Beyond fresh flowers, we also use these ethics in our workshop. We choose to not use products with chemicals or the non-biodegradable and toxic floral foam.
We also offer creative floral workshops for small groups, private parties, or corporate activities. Sharing our passion and our philosophy of flowers is one of our greatest pleasures.
