The Art of Connection

Behind every beautiful floral creation are people whose work often goes unseen. In The Art of Connection, British floral designer Simon Lycett explores the world behind the flowers he works with, meeting the people whose knowledge, care and craftsmanship help bring his ideas to life. From Dutch greenhouses to Duyvenvoorde and a British cash-and-carry, he discovers generations of experience, personal stories and a shared love of flowers. Along the way, we see how Duyvenvoorde connects growers with the people who work with their flowers. As Simon and his team bring the final arrangement to life, the contribution of everyone along the way becomes clear. What we see is one creation. What makes it possible is the work of many. “It’s their expertise that makes me look good.” - Simon Lycett This is The Art of Connection.
