How to Bring a Raw Loft Venue Space to Life!

If you’re wondering how you’re going to dress up your minimalistic venue – leave it to Blush & Bowties to inspire you with heavenly arrangements and organic decor. Their designs were inspired by the healing power of nature. Hunt and Gather Floral brought the outdoors into this stunning blank canvas of a venue and proved that all it takes to bring life to your venue is a little bit of blooms. Head on over to the full gallery to find all the inspiration you’ll need – taken by ARTIESE Studios.

From Blush and Bowties I designed this shoot around the idea of earthy sensuality meeting delicate minimalism. This shoot is inspired by the healing power of nature set against a raw loft space and accented with modern details. 

This shoot was very personal for me. I had been feeling a lack of connection to nature in my life during the time I came up with the concept for this shoot. My life was consumed with work and I felt a deep disconnection from peace and simplicity. 

As it turned out, my husband and I moved out of the city to a century home in a small village. We began walking every morning as our home backs onto forest. I started to spend more time outside, in the fresh air, and I soon was overwhelmed with how nature can be healing, in a very raw and real way. That is where the concept from this shoot was born. Close to where I live there are natural badlands where the soil has turned a rich terracotta tone. I choose to use this for inspiration in terms of texture and colour.
