Events

It’s no surprise that we are huge fans of Kenneth Turner, the fabulous floral designer based in London.

Having trained with world renowned florists at Pulbrook & Gould, Kenneth opened a shop in Mayfair and became famous for creating visual extravaganzas for clients such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Prince of Wales.

He was selected in 2004 to be the exclusive florist for Harrods and continues to give master classes (where Diane was a pupil in 2005.)

This spring, we were asked to design a table setting for an event at Neiman Marcus in Fort Worth, and were inspired by several designs from Kenneth’s book, The Floral Decorator. One of them in particular caught our eye where fresh flowers were used as a garland around the plate.

According to Kenneth, “Plate decorations reflect an important but often forgotten point about floral decorations; any display should be made for the enjoyment not just of its creator but also of the beholder.”
