An interview with Alexa of CLEAR NORTH
---------------------------------------------------------------------
+ describe your job
design arrangements for weddings and various events, create floral installations and being surrounded in beauty that is constantly changing
+ what inspires your work?
collecting beach rocks, sunlight, color patterns in fields and gardens
+ what are the steps to making a floral arrangement?
for me they are:
:: creating a foundation or base of woody stems and foliage that inspires the
design
:: adding colorful face flowers in groupings and at different levels, showing off
the beauty of each bloom
:: finally incorporating the more wispy elements to create intuitive movement and
flow- to harmonize the arrangement
+ what is on your wishlist?
ceramic cups by noriko yamamoto, a satomi kawakita ring, just about anything from raquel allegra’s spring collection
+ what are your favorite local places?
plow (for the lemon ricotta panckes and cameilla blossom iced tea), mile rock beach, flora grubb gardens and anica boutique
have a look at her stunning and inspiring blog here.
thank you so much, alexa!
