Atelier Tamamo was founded by
Tamamo Taguchi 23 years ago,
at the turn of the millennium, and
reborn as a flower design atelier
focusing on spatial decoration
in 2017. At the age of 21, Taguchi
began her design journey in
Tokyo, Japan. While balancing a
budding career in aviation, she
enrolled in flower school. Later,
through an opportunity with
Japan Airlines, Taguchi traveled
to Europe to further her flower
education, learning from such
greats as Jane Packer and Paula
Pryke, among others.
Atelier Tamamo's statement-
making designs blend permanent
flowers and natural materials.
It is through this approach that
Taguchi is able to create lasting
designs that would be difficult to
express with fresh flowers alone.
Each design is created bespoke
on site, customized to the space
in which it will be displayed.
Atelier Tamamo is a trailblazer
and modern master of its
signature art form, redefining
what permanent flowers can
do. When speaking to what
makes Atelier Tamamo designs
so special, Taguchi shares,
"We design with effective
colors based on color optics
and color psychology."
