How to introduce yourself to the floral industry?

Before learning flower arrangement, we should first understand the classification of flower arrangement. The classification of flower arrangement can be divided according to the container and expression.

The classification of flower arrangement that the florist will introduce to you is the most important classification that students without any foundation must understand. There are three commonly used classifications. The first classification of flower arrangement is based on the artistic style of flower arrangement, which is divided into western traditional flower arrangement, oriental flower arrangement and modern flower arrangement design. Western traditional flower arrangement is based on geometric modeling, emphasizing the use of color, compact structure, gorgeous and solemn, with strong decorative effect, which is the basis of various basket designs and environmental floral designs in ceremonial flowers. Oriental flower arrangement advocates nature, simplicity and elegance, pays attention to poetry and painting, and pursues the perfection of artistic conception. Oriental flower arrangement cultivates students' artistic feeling and artistic flower arrangement skills. Modern floral art is integrated into modern personal consciousness, which is subjective, pursuing change and unconstrained. There should be a deeper connotation. I don't advocate modern floral art with strong abstraction and no function.

The second classification is based on the purpose of flower arrangement, which is divided into ritual flower arrangement and artistic flower arrangement. Etiquette flower arrangement is a kind of flower that we often mention as etiquette. It is integrated into the traditional culture of the Chinese nation and the cultures of various regions. The modeling features of western traditional flower arrangement are suitable for the consumption concept of China people. Artistic flower arrangement is the concentration of thoughts and feelings, the embodiment of personality, and can arouse the audience's * * * voice. It is a floral work created by a florist who participated in an exhibition, competition or performance.

The third classification is based on the material of flower arrangement, which is divided into flower arrangement, dried flower and artificial flower. Flowers are the roots, stems, leaves and flowers of plants. After the fruit is cut, it will not follow. Hydroponics is also called fresh cut flowers, and flower arrangement is also flower arrangement. Dried flowers are flowers with natural shapes through certain technical treatment of plants in nature. Arranging flowers with this material is called dried flowers. Artificial flowers made of natural plants are also called artificial flowers (artificial flowers), and flower arrangement with this material is called artificial flowers; We don't have to plant, make or copy these materials ourselves. After the flower shop opens, it can be directly wholesaled from the flower wholesale market and the dried silk flower wholesale market. Then use the skills you have learned to arrange flowers or dry silk flower's works. Dried flowers and artificial flowers are collectively called dried silk flowers. So where should students who want to open a flower shop without any foundation start? Floriculture level is the foundation of flower shops, which must be able to arrange flowers. Where should I learn to arrange flowers first? After understanding the classification of flower arrangement, those flower arrangements in Nanning, Guangxi suggested that friends should learn the traditional western modeling first, because flower arrangement is a plastic art, and you can't create modeling at the beginning of learning flower arrangement; Western traditional flower arrangement is mainly based on geometric patterns. First of all, you have been given the shape of the outline, including triangle, sector, circle, ellipse, hemisphere, semi-ellipsoid, cone, triangle, inverted T-shape, L-shape, S-shape, crescent, oblique triangle, diamond, star, pyramid and diamond. These basic models are easy for students who have no foundation to learn. You need to use some skills under the guidance of the teacher to combine these models according to aesthetic principles. You must practice repeatedly in your study and master these basic modeling skills skillfully. All kinds of flower baskets commonly used in different etiquette occasions in flower shops are all changed from these basic types. This tells everyone that you can't master the basic techniques, and you can't start without mastering the basic types. The etiquette flower basket in the flower shop is to change these traditional western styles in material, shape, texture, color and quantity; Make it conform to the aesthetic principle, and combine the functionality and environmental factors of floral design to achieve coordination, consistency and unity, thus creating ever-changing works. So whether you are a flower shop or learning to arrange flowers, you should start with the traditional western style. Just like painting begins with drawing cylinders, cubes and eggs. After learning western traditional modeling well, students who want to open a flower shop can begin to learn the etiquette flower basket and bouquet design used in various occasions. Of course, all kinds of wedding flower designs, hotel flower designs, family flower designs, and environmental flower designs can be classified as ceremonial flowers and can also be called business flowers. With the foundation of western traditional flower arrangement, it is easy for you to understand, use, remember and change when you study the etiquette and flower design of flower shops. For example, if we want to tell the students about the floral design of the reception desk (check-in), the floral decoration of the wedding wall and the floral design of the wedding car in the wedding class, if you haven't studied traditional western modeling or only know a few simple modeling, then you will be at a loss. It can be seen that there is no basis for flower shops and no basis for learning flower arrangement. I suggest you learn western traditional flower arrangement. That is, the basic form of flower arrangement represented by Europe and America.
