HUG&KISS ― A Valentine's Day dedicated to you, your loved ones and nature
To celebrate love in all its expressions, including respect for the environment, at Valentine’s Day Green Wise proposes sustainable compositions that enhance the flowers and plants that nature offers us in the current season.
Devoting flowers and plants not subjected to any chemical treatment, grown with the sole force of nature, to yourself and to those you love means them dedicating a lifestyle.
A sustainable life, in which we appreciate the shape of nature as it is.
Flower Tote Bag
Canvas
Just like when you hug your loved ones, hold the beauty and scent of nature in your arms.
Our Flower Tote allows you to carry beautiful flowers and plants from one place to another, holding them in your hand or on your shoulder. Inspired by the classic and simple American tote bag, each piece is handmade in Japan starting from Hampu, a particular fabric initially used for boat sails. Thanks to this particularly resistant material and a sturdy structure, this bag can be enjoyed every day and shared by several generations, remaining as a lasting memory that will accompany you through all seasons.

Paper
The shoulder bags that we combine with the smaller bouquets, sisters of the canvas totes, are made of Washable Paper, an eco-sustainable material composed of natural plant fibres and latex. They can be placed in any space of the house, whether on tables and desks or hung on the wall or ceiling and can are reusable several times because in addition to being waterproof and tear-resistant they are also washable.

Slow Green Christmas ― Spreading love and kindness
This year, which has been a tough year, let’s make Christmas a more loving and warm holiday for both people and nature, dedicating the beauty and scent of a plant that is sustainable, local and cultivated without the use of pesticides to the most important people in our lives.
By choosing one of our Christmas tree proposals, you can help reduce the number of trees that are cut down during the Christmas period and then thrown away as waste.

The Kukido concept was awarded in the “Awareness improvement for individual and public” category of the Good Design Award 2020!
The Good Design Award is a Japanese comprehensive design evaluation and commendation system.
Many companies and designers from both inside and outside of Japan participate in the activity to enhance the industry or the quality of life through the design.
The judging committee has positively evaluated our design approach because it is a methodology that makes flowers and nature feel beautiful as they are, rather than controlling nature to create artificial beauty. It makes one think about what beauty is.
Kukido, in fact, is a design approach to create a symbiotic relationship with nature by broadening people’s sense of values for flowers and deepening their understanding of nature that surrounds us. Through creative activities of making the flowers stand upright just like in their natural form, you will notice the uniqueness of naturally grown flowers and discover the charm that nature creates.

We have installed seasonal Planter Gardens within our showroom and inside the courtyard of the building in Via Palermo. The concept is that of an “urban oasis where one can experience the four seasons”: a small space to reconnect with nature and relax during work or a stroll. Plants that express the current seasonality, combined with pots by Atelier Vierkant, were selected for both the indoor and outdoor areas.
