American Floral Trends Forecast 2023, Look 1 preview: "Santa Fe"
Inspired by the serene beauty of an arid winter day interpreted through the artistic lens for which the American SW has become renowned, our “Santa Fe” trend balances natural color and texture with a sculptural sense of control. Built to spark a calm sense of wonder, the “Santa Fe” aesthetic is ideal for clients who place value on craftsmanship.
With the “Santa Fe” look, a muted color pallet of taupe, sage and vital green gains a laser-like focus through intentional use of warm gem-toned focal points. For these focal points, a high value is placed on emphasizing premium and hard-to-acquire flowers such as imported specialty
orchids and Gloriosa lilies.
To learn more about this trend and how to adopt it in your design practice read the January 2023 issue of Florists' Review Magazine
EVOCATIVE OF THIS TREND
Flowers: Phalaenopsis (moth) orchids, Cypripedium/Paphiopedilum (lady’s-slipper) orchids, Gloriosa lilies
Foliage/Branches: Cotinus (smokebush), Xerophyllum (bear grass), palm leaves, Salix caprea/S. discolor (pussy
willow)
Vessels: terra-cotta amphoras, unglazed ceramics, raw metal bowls
Pop Culture References: John Gaw Meem architecture, ikebana, Brian Eno, Andrea Iyamah fashion
