Marc Gilly, Managing Director
To me, flowers are as essential as music, candles and great
food. Sandra brings an amazing artistry and instinctiveness to
what she does.
DONNA KARAN

Flowers have a way of breathing life into any environment.
Taking on different expressions or moods with each installation,
Sandra and team manage to always deliver a sense of
elegance uncompromised and unmatched in its originality
and creativity. I’m glad to be able to rely on the consistency
and sense of effortlessness I’m sure to find when working with
my friends at Ovando.

Ovando is not the average flower shop.
Rooted in the principles of modern Mexican
architecture, both boutiques blend dynamic
energy, stark simplicity and the visual
elegance of an exclusive boutique.
Black walls and atmospheric lighting form a
backdrop against which the sensual shapes
and shades of the flowers, plants and cacti
explode in a festival of color and texture.
Whimsical one moment, mysterious the
next, the look and feel of these kinetic
spaces are inspired by the daily infusion of
fresh flowers, the shifting of the seasons,
and the limitless imagination of ovando’s
creative team.

in Ovando’s signature style. Each class
explores varying themes and design
principles, leaving participants eager to
partake over and over again!
