Floral Kokoro is a modern floral design studio at Jalan Kilang. It was founded in New York and is now based in Singapore, and has been featured in Vogue, Tatler, Today and L'Officiel.
The work leans design-led rather than off-the-shelf: fresh flowers, handcrafted dried and preserved arrangements, and freestyle ikebana using preserved blooms in vases from their own collection. They take customisation and specific requests, so most pieces are made to order. A preserved flower vase arrangement such as Waterfalls (a one-of-a-kind piece) runs around $205.
Worth it for: someone after a distinctive, made-to-order arrangement or a preserved keepsake, rather than a standard bouquet.
