Arianna Genoese
Italy
Working as a florist since 2020, my profession stems from a deep passion for flowers, nature, art, and set design.
My journey began at a floral art school in Porto, Portugal, but my most significant experiences came from working directly in the field. After relocating to Prato, Tuscany, I continued to develop my craft.
Driven by ambition and curiosity to test and improve myself daily, I undertook a journey to South Korea in 2025, spending several weeks in close contact with professional florists and artists from the Asian floral sector to refine my style and expand my knowledge.
My motto: Never give up, never stop. Knowledge opens all doors.
“A flower’s appeal is in its contradictions — so delicate in form yet strong in fragrance, so small in size yet big in beauty, so short in life yet long on effect.”
