The Flower Kiosk
Are you scared of conflict but feel the need to tell someone politely to FUCK OFF?
Do you miss the abs your partner had when you started dating, but don't know how to approach the subject?
Are you secretly in love and don’t dare to say it?
During Southern Sweden Design Days 2021, Candytuft took over an old flower kiosk from the 1930s for a four day exhibition.
We put the Victorian flower language in a modern context, by opening a hot-line and turning the messages into floral patterns and prints.
The fictional agency
As experts on the flower language, Candytuft can get your message across without uttering a word. Using floriography, we deliver whatever message you desire in the shape of a bouquet. By packaging a difficult message into a work of art you soften the blow, also, you don’t need to work up any courage to face conflict – Candytuft delivers the message for you!
We combine collage making, fabric printing, site specific inspiration and design, and present to you our fictional conflict resolution agency! Modern issues - Victorian solutions
Floriography — every flower has a meaning.
