  • Curriculum Overview

Day-by-Day Floral STEM Lab™ Camp Experience

Day 1 — Discover the Science of Flowers

Discover the Science of Flowers

Students begin their journey by exploring the fascinating world of plant biology and botanical anatomy. Through engaging demonstrations and hands-on exploration, students learn how flowers grow, how stems transport water and nutrients, and how nature’s design systems influence floral structures. Students create their first floral arrangement, applying basic principles of balance, proportion, and color harmony.

Key Learning Topics

• Parts of a flower and plant anatomy
• How flowers absorb and transport water
• Introduction to floral design tools and materials
• Color harmony and basic composition.
Hands-on Project
Students design their first professional-style floral arrangement to take home.

Day 2 — Flower Care & Bouquet Techniques (10 AM–4 PM)

Math and Patterns in Nature

Students explore the mathematical beauty found in nature by observing natural symmetry, spirals, and geometric patterns in flowers and plants. They learn how designers use these natural structures to create visually balanced arrangements. Students build a botanical centerpiece while learning structural design techniques.

Key Learning Topics

• Natural geometry and patterns in plants
• Balance and symmetry in design
• Floral mechanics and structure
• Introduction to sustainable floral design
Hands-on Project
Students create a botanical centerpiece design.

Day 3 — Floral Engineering & Structural Design

Floral Engineering & Structural Design

Students discover how floral designers and event designers build larger installations and stable structures using engineering principles. Students experiment with different techniques used to support flowers and create dimensional designs.

Key Learning Topics

• Structural mechanics in floral design
• Stability and support techniques
• Creative design thinking
• Sustainability in modern floral design
Hands-on Project
Students design a structural floral piece or mini installation.
