He is well known for his trend setting design styles, and his lecture demonstration offered an insight into contemporary design and technical craftsmanship with an emphasis on the use of sustainable and reusable materials.<\/p>\n<p>Sue Poole, Programme Leader for Reaseheath\u2019s Floristry and Horticulture Department, said: \u201cThis was a very special event which attracted hundreds of people including floristry professionals, teachers and judges. Gregor is one of the most inspirational and celebrated floral designers in the world and we received many lovely compliments after his presentation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGregor travels world wide so we felt very privileged that he chose to visit Reaseheath College during his very full schedule.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Former Reaseheath student Eleanor Bellwood, currently head florist at Citiblooms in Manchester, said: \u201cI have been inspired by Gregor\u2019s work for some years and this was a fantastic opportunity to learn new skills which will impress and excite our clients.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Another former student, Caroline Boffey, who runs her own successful business \u2018Flowers at The Dutch Barn\u2019 added: \u201cI actually attended one of Gregor\u2019s workshops at his home in Germany in 2018 so I was very keen to see how his style has moved on. As a florist you are constantly learning and it was wonderful to pick up new ideas as well as enjoying a very entertaining evening.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gregor said: \u201cThis has been a very positive and well attended event held in a wonderful, modern college. The audience was very keen to receive technical instruction on the latest European design. Hopefully everyone learned something new to take home and try.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy top tip for people entering or already working in the industry is to see floristry as a marriage between horticulture and floral design. Florists should understand the biology and science behind plant growth and be capable of planting up a container for a balcony or terrace as well as creating beautiful floral designs for indoors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the lecture demonstration, Gregor spent a further three days at Reaseheath sharing his expertise with college tutors and students, and with young professionals from the GB talent pool.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lgupox63-ee0fb497e130c0277e3dd57249654341\">\n#top
