The Catherine Muller's world

With time, the designer knew to make involve her style, combining today flowers and precious material with basic and cheap things as like grass for example!

Thus, the decoration of her flower shop, located beside the street of street of Rivoli in Paris, is constituted of raw material such as the brushed concrete ground, the breeze-blocks (it is both graphic and male, it is ideal for construction and the installations of the displays) or metal for an ambiance “Street Art”, thus contrasting with the delicacy and the refinement of flowers.

In the same spirit, some of its compositions combine graphic and precious flowers like orchids Vanda with fruits of vegetables such as black-carrot or potatoes. Lastly, each one composition carries its signature, namely a vegetal fastener.

The fetishes objects of Catherine Muller: the bust: an accumulation of several hundreds of centimes, worked in scale, in order to create a repetition of the face of Marianne; “barbotines” (out of cast iron and painted) of 2 styles used to make a contradiction between the very poor and graphic elements to give them a side antiquity: ancient mirror, the eye of ox...

BOURGEON, a new flower shop in Paris

The flowershop BOURGEON, recently open in the 1st district of Paris beside the street of Rivoli, is the flower shop of the Catherine Muller’s Flower School in Paris. The walls sheltering this new shop formerly constituted the old stables of the royal palace of Paris, so called Palais Royal.





Long works were necessary to relook this old shop according to the ideas of the designer Catherine Muller to install her Flower School in Paris. We completely reconsidered the configuration of underground in order to create space as well as possible and emphasizing the parts arched out of old stone of this cellar to preserve the authentic seal of the place.






To find a single color for the walls was not easy either and it will have been necessary for us less than 6 months of research before finding the good color: a mixture of grey of Payne and ashed grey, colors which bring sobriety, contrast and light with the various colors of the flowers of the flower shop BOURGEON.






For her part, Catherine Muller wished an environment “street art” and Town to create a contrast with the refinement of her natural work and her flowers in the capital of France. Thus, rough material like breeze blocks or schemes of work out of metal one used to perfect the decoration of the flower shop BOURGEON something simple, something rough, an urban landscape.




Thanks to our shop, students in formation of reconversion of florist can, besides their courses of floral design with Catherine Muller, to observe and take part in all the activities which compose the good performance of the flower shop BOURGEON et thus, to constitute a true experiment as a florist.

Wedding floral decoration at the famous parisian restaurant: Le Pré Catelan

A few days ago, Catherine Muller and her team invested the very famous gourmet restaurant: Le Pré Catelan, located all beside Paris, in order to prepare the decoration of a wedding there. Requiring much work, the bases of the decoration were prepared the day before at the flowershop BOURGEON (BOURGEON is the flowershop of the Catherine Muller Flower School in Paris). Flower arrangements being very precise, the most open flowers were used for the bases, while knowing pertinently that they would be replaced on the following day by the most beautiful flowers of Paris.
Catherine Muller teached especially some of her students, in order to prepare them take part in this true decoration.

The request of the bride was the following one: decoration must be sophisticated while remaining natural, restrained, modern and especially, single.
Thus, the Catherine Muller’s team with some of the excellent students of the Catherine Muller Flower School created a set of table center in shade of chlorophyllian green and white (arum (for the modernity), peonies, orchids, hydrangeas…) It was very interesting to see how Catherine Muller selects her flowers for which are most beautiful flowers of Paris, it them selected almost one by one.

As for buffets, the idea was the same one: it was not necessary that not returned either too much « wild » or too sophisticated but natural and single. In her flower school in Paris, Catherine Muller showed us how to cover the vases with sheets of Aralia. And like Catherine Muller teaches in her courses, it is important to observe the sheet on both sides because sometimes, the back of the sheet is the most interesting. In that case precisely, the sheets were placed at back in the order to take out again the veins for a best result.

In the romantic and imposing spirit of the wedding, two Medicis vases were decorated by Catherine Muller and one of her students who is currently in reconversion of florist.

While part of the team was on the reception part, two other people of flower school Catherine Muller worked on the splendid Bentley GT of the grooms in order to carry out something of refined and discreet.

Balustrades, being inside room of reception, have been adorned of flowers, most beautiful the ones as the others. Catherine Muller occupied with one of her pupil, who is at the end of her formation of florist.

Catherine Muller supervised the decoration of the external sunshade, thus creating a summery environment or even exotic.

Lastly, the floral designer Catherine Muller decorated the groom’s armchair herself, respectively giving them a male character (more graphic, more purified), and a female character (more refined, more in roundness and romanticism).

Finally, it was just great for all of the team members and very developing for the students, to see the results of their work as well as the recognition of the organizers of the marriage and of Catherine Muller.

Catherine Muller Flower School : Decoration in Opera Garnier in Paris

Last April, it was so great to have the privilege of going inside the Opera de Paris to create a big decoration with the Catherine Muller team.
We were a team of 7 florists for this big decoration : 3 from Catherine Muller Company, and 4 students prepared for the event.



During the first days of the one week course, Catherine Muller teached us many techniques for middle and big size decoration. The title of the course was "the intensive : special event cocktail" (see the calendar for the next courses and the corresponding program).


On Wednesday we started to prepare the different structures of the decoration. On Thursday we started to work on the flowers. Every Rose Avalanche was treated specially with 2 projection of colors, to make a special effect with the light, something metallic with a reflect of gold.


Friday was the big day : we arrived in the morning at the Opera : everything must be finished at 13:00 p.m. We install the flowers on the most beautiful stair ever seen in the world, and on the balconies.


The result is fantastic, the effect is totally different when all the flowers are together, seen from far away compared to what you feel when you prepare the decoration : it is very surprising to see this completely finished !

Flower School Catherine Muller - A day in Paris

Sometimes we wonder how students at Catherine Muller's flower school spend a day in Paris.

(This is exactly why I'm posting this! )

Today, I am going to introduce a student who was here last month at Catherine Muller's flower school.

This is Ms. Shiho Koda, the kindest and the sweetest Japanese student that I ever encountered :) She came to paris to take flower lessons with Catherine Muller and she was with us for two weeks.

For those who want to know about the daily schedule of Catherine Muller's flower school, I will briefly introduce what happens during the week of each seminars.

During a week of seminar, we usually start at 10 am and finish at 6 pm.

(for four days per week)

It is very intensive, challenging yet very, very interesting.

After one or two weeks (or even longer) of seminars, students receive a diploma.

As Ms. Koda took two weeks of seminars, we had a little time for ' paris gourmet tour':)! We decided to visit Angelina, situated near the tuileries, where we can find the most divine 'mont-blanc' and Angelina's special hot chocolate :D

We had a perfect afternoon!

It is already two weeks since she has returned to Japan. We miss her a lot and we hope to see her again!

Good luck Ms. Shiho Koda!
