meet emily
Emily’s approach to floral design is rooted in intention, creativity, and an understanding of spaces and people. Before founding EmBloom, she built a career in social work, developing a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach that now informs her design process.
In 2023, an opportunity to design florals for a luxury high-rise community in Chicago became the foundation for EmBloom. Through hands-on experience, consistent sourcing, and ongoing refinement, Emily developed a design style aimed to complement interiors, rather than competing with them, all while keeping the client and their vision at the forefront.
EmBloom is a Chicago-based floral studio specializing in floral work for hospitality, residential, and events of all sizes and scopes. From recurring lobby installations to private events and custom arrangements, each design is curated with an emphasis on seasonality, scale, and materiality.
With a deep respect for both people and place, Emily creates floral designs that feel intentional, elevated, and seamlessly integrated — celebrating both the everyday and the extraordinary.
What would any good floral designer be without their canine assistant to keep them on their toes? At EmBloom, Jasper, Emily’s English Bulldog, serves as CBO (chief bulldog officer). He specializes in quality control, posing for photos, and earning treats for being the best boy.
