About
Floral Designer
Amsterdam
Malou's journey through the creative landscape began at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute, where she honed her skills in Fashion and Branding.
Despite the rigour of academic study, she found herself yearning for a more hands-on approach to creation, a yearning rooted in her childhood experiences. Immersed in nature from a young age by her parents, Malou developed a profound connection to the environment that would later become integral to her craft.
Her entry into the world of terrariums was as organic as the ecosystems she creates— a spontaneous venture about ten years ago that quickly captured the attention and hearts of those around her. What started as an individual project soon transitioned to a commercial pursuit as demand for her terrariums soared. Recognising her talent, a local plant shop not only stocked her creations but also hosted her for several years as she led workshops, sharing her expertise and passion for plant life with others.
This evolution of her craft and knowledge culminated in the inception of Studio Wüst, where Malou channels her deep-seated reverence for biophilic design into every piece she creates. The studio, nestled in the vibrant city of Amsterdam, serves as a hub of innovation and creativity where Malou works with both plants and textile materials. Her dedication to her craft is evident in the functional pieces and art installations that bear her signature blend of technical skill and a heartfelt commitment to bringing the essence of the outdoors into everyday living spaces.
