Whether it’s selecting the best locally grown, seasonal flowers at market, or sourcing special plants from nearby nurseries, Sophia loves creating little snapshots of the weird, wonderful and enduringly romantic natural world around her.

Our studio is proud to acknowledge the Gadigal peoples of the Eora Nation as the custodians of the land on which we live and work. We recognise and celebrate their cultural connection to Country and all that it encompasses. We pay respects to Elders past and present. Always was, alway will be.
