Six basic methods of flower arrangement

(1) Flower arrangements should be light on the top and heavy on the bottom: flower buds are on top, and blooming flowers are on the bottom; light-colored flowers are on top, and dark-colored flowers are on the bottom, which will make the flower arrangement appear natural. There is no distinction between good and bad flowers. It is just that the differences in the shape of the flower arrangement, the shape of the flower arrangement and the color of the flowers will cause the viewer to have a psychological sense of weight. On this basis, combining flowers of different colors can also achieve a colorful and coordinated effect.

(2) The height of the creative flower arrangement should be staggered: the flower design should be expressed in a three-dimensional space, which requires hierarchical position management using modeling elements such as points, lines, and surfaces in a multi-dimensional space. The upper and lower, left and right, front and back levels are clear and unified. , try to avoid having the main flowers on the same horizontal or vertical line.


(3) The bouquet should be scattered at the top and gathered at the bottom: This means that the flower parts should be arranged separately and gathered at the base like trees, twisted together, as if growing from the same root, and the upper parts should be scattered like branches to give full play to the natural personality of the flowers and spread appropriately. , Tongna is colorful, so that the work has both varied and rich personality and identity.


(4) The design should be dense and dense: the flowers should be arranged in a sparse and dense manner, with natural changes. They should be as sparse as a horse, airtight, as sparse as morning stars, as dense as rain in a pond, alternately sparse and dense, and well-proportioned. Generally, in the works, The center of gravity should be dense, and the areas far away from the center of gravity of the work should be sparse.

(5) The whole should combine the virtual and the real: the flowers are real, the flowers and leaves are virtual, there are flowers but no leaves, and there are leaves but no flowers. The buds of the flower materials are virtual, and the blooming flowers are real; in a complete flower arrangement The flower in the center of the flower arrangement is the real flower, and the flower in the front of the flower arrangement is the real flower.

(6) When arranging flowers, you should look up and down: the bouquet should have flowers up, down, left, and right, and the branches and leaves should look up and down around the center, which not only reflects the integrity of the work, but also maintains the balance of the work. Whether it is a single work or a combined work, it should show its integrity and balance.
