Each piece is meticulously thought through with rigorous testing & creative processes before being brought into production.
Tweed Twigs
Tweed Twigs, helmed by Graham Ho is a multidisciplinary practice that explores architectural space-making through the medium of flowers. By creating an experience that elicits an emotional connection, the practice feeds of the experience as an architect to redefine space and scale through floral design. Through designing for the senses, Tweed Twigs is driven by our collective human experience – challenging the way we see flora through interaction, expectation and intention. It started with flowers and will always be flowers.
