Discover KADO: Private Floral Design Experience in Kyoto

Immerse yourself in the exquisite art of 'KADO,' a Japanese flower arrangement, with a captivating private session set in the heart of a traditional Kyoto home. This uniquely curated experience is far more than just a class—it's an intimate journey into the ethereal world of floral artistry, and an opportunity to understand the profound philosophy that forms the essence of KADO. This age-old practice finds its roots in the celebration of simplicity, and the belief in the powerful beauty of space. As you delicately balance each flower, leaf, and stem, you're not merely arranging - you're painting a silent, organic symphony, filling each note with serene stillness.

Throughout this immersive session, you'll have the chance to draw a comparative understanding between the Japanese and Western flower arranging styles, illuminating the intricate details that distinguish each. The harmonious world of KADO is about appreciating the beauty of emptiness, the eloquence of simplicity, and the joy of co-creating with nature. As you craft your own arrangement, each plant becomes an artist's brushstroke, creating a dynamic interplay of forms and voids. We warmly invite you into this beautifully subtle art form, where you'll engage with not just the flowers, but the space around them - crafting an enchanting narrative of elegance and tranquility.
