Founded by Polly Green, the studio produces everlasting paper flowers for interiors. They are made to last beyond a single moment. They respond to light, material and architecture - first as a focal point on entry, then settling into a room rather than passing through.
Italian crepe paper begins tightly compressed on the roll. First, a long cut through it, separating one length from the rest. Then it is cut again into smaller forms. Pigment is mixed by hand.
Coffee, tea and turmeric are added to dye. Wire forms a supporting structure within each piece, and tape ensures it holds its own weight.
The flowers are not artificial replicas, and they are not intended to replace nature. The work isn’t about quick beauty or about remaining fixed once placed. It allows for adjustment, for variation, for the small shifts that happen when something is made by hand.
Built slowly and intended to stay.
