How to Make a Parallel Flower Arrangement - Spring Flower Arrangement - Floristry - Flower Arranging
The parallel style has defined groups of flowers, foliage or even vegetables to create this characteristic style. Negative space between each group is important to emphasise the vertical groupings.
This type of arrangements is often front-facing, so its usually seen from the one side and can be constructed in a variety of sizes. Groups can be made using one type of flower or a mixture of varieties and works beautifully in long containers.
If you are new to arranging, take a few minutes to view my Back to Basics series which will explain how to create a very basic parallel arrangement. using a minimal amount of flowers.

Very interesting design ( I have seen a couple of parallel designs which were a lot busier & bigger) Like this one though as it is simple yet attractive.

Parallel arrangement should have clear spaces in between each flower group. This gives negative space. This arrangement has evolved over time as many arrangers don't like or understand the reasons for leaving the gaps. But both styles are enjoyable and are inspired by the same basic rules. 😃
