ABOUT US
The design studio with two locations on the island of Hiddensee and in Weimar in Germany was founded in 2020 by the landscape architect and garden monument conservator Catrin Seidel.
After almost two decades of restoring state historical gardens in Thuringia, she has since devoted herself to her second passion, flowers. ​
“The love of growing things, the enjoyment of the smell of earth and the scent of flowers, the full taste of fresh vegetables, the joy of the animals in the garden - this millennia-old feeling can carry people into the future. It is the counterweight to technology and science that is essential for the future. Only the balance of all things, the system, the acceptance of a material cycle in the sense of: I give back what I have taken, can secure the future of humanity on our earth. Gardens therefore have the potential to be a model for saving our planet on a small scale.
Ethos
For me, the local and sustainable cultivation and artistic and creative design with flowers without creative regulations is part of the process of connecting back to the roots of our culture, the horticultural creation at the beginning of being human. The todays disconnected, urban and digitally influenced human experiences with all their senses the beauty and deep satisfaction in grasping, picking, smelling and arranging the flowers.”
