one obvious way to design with florals is to, well, add flowers to your environment, whether a residential or commercial space. and also let me say that i think every environment must have real flowers. that said, dont' forget that the vessels holding your floral beauties can be done in a different way. think outside the typical vase for a distinct, dramatic effect. such as this "paper white" vessel, designed by bradley l. bowers and found via design milk.
simply changing out a lampshde from stuffy to vibrant florals can transform a work/desk area in such a simple yet cheery way. via bolig.
