Postcrete Design


Many European floral designers, such as Pim Vanden Akker, use postcrete in their designs to quickly construct a base form in their designs, this is what inspired me.

 
I used Black and green twigs and dried leaves which were placed in to the post create while wet to give the added height to my design.  For added texture I lengethend some testubes with wires and covered them in sisal and boullion wire and slotted them in to the "frame".

 
The natural flexibility in the tulips what with the contrasting colour against the black give a modern and contempory feel to the design which is enchanced by the starkness of the reveloutionary concrete base.
