The term for the art of flower arrangement is Ikebana. This traditional Japanese practice emphasizes harmony, balance, and simplicity, often featuring a minimalistic approach to floral design. Ikebana focuses on the arrangement’s composition, shape, and line rather than solely on the flowers themselves, allowing for a meditative experience for both the arranger and the viewer. Various styles exist within Ikebana, each with its own principles and techniques. While it traditionally uses specific types of flowers, branches, and leaves, the emphasis is on the beauty and relationships between these elements, showcasing nature’s growth and the changing seasons.
