FR: What is your favorite type of flower design to create?
YB: Every type of design is fascinating to me, but flower
installations are my favorite. I relish the challenge of turning
a large empty space into something incredible that no one
could have imagined. However, creating bridal bouquets,
which used to be challenging and frustrating for me, are now
my favorite feature of a wedding because seeing a bride's face
when she sees her bouquet is very rewarding. My next goal
is to perfect the art of wearable florals and floral designs for
editorial work.
FR: What do you hope to do in the future?
YB: I want to continue picking up knowledge from the
top professionals in the field, and I wish to take part in
competitions and flower festivals all around the world. As
an independent floral designer, I want to focus on major
installations, editorial pieces, photoshoots and anything else
that involves a deeper creative process. I also want to be able
to contribute to the field and even teach alongside some of
my floral friends and inspirations, like Susan McLeary, Holly
Chapple, Alyssa Lytle and others. It would be a dream to be
able to share and teach all around the world. And, I would
also love having a farm where I can grow my own flowers.
