WHO IS MARCO

I love to make your dreams come true and transmit your emotions to others

I’ve been handling flowers since I was a 9 year old boy in my mother’s tiny 12 square meter flower shop in the small town of Gallarate, between Milan and Varese. After graduation as an industrial engineer and after ending military service, in 1990 I started working in the shop, which in the meantime expanded and moved into a bigger site. For my professional education I attended the Federfiori academy, with Roberto Vertuani and Graziano Trentini. Other important teachers during my schooling are Fabio Vecchiato, Mery Mugellini and Renzo Buzzavo. In 2009 I joined the Sanremo Italian Style team, a group of flower designers that aims to enhance and promote typical Sanremo Flower Market products. Sanremo Italian Style has become a well-established trend amongst the best florists and flower designers throughout the world.

In 2013 I decided to give my career a twist moving from traditional florist to freelancing and organizing events. Up to this very moment I find myself hardly capable of endorsing the term Floral Designer despite working together with many big names in the international floristry world, such as Max Van de Sluis, Mario Sortino, Per Benjamin, Tomas de Bruyne, Tor Gundersen, Rudy Casati, Dini Holtrop

With more than 30 years of experience in the flower industry I’m a professional all-rounder and excellent communicator. I love to make your floral dreams come true with creativity, pragmatism and humility. My work transmits my a great passion for art and music. From weddings to dinner parties, to corporate affairs, my style adds just the right touch of Italian elegance and fantasy wherever there is a desire for the beauty of extraordinary flowers.

"Big events - a source of inspiration. Flowers are the medium we work with, yet the purpose of our job as floral designers is not to focus on the flower itself. We use flowers as a mean of communication, we use them for their ability to convey emotions, we use them to funnel the message of the client and to create an experience. Floral design is not about the one flower, it’s an about the overall outcome we have to delive"   Tomas De Bruyne
