    In this workshop you and your team will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the fascinating world of terrariums and learn how to build your own self-sustaining ecosystem. 

    The session starts with a short introduction where Malou shares the history and science behind terrarium building. You'll discover how ecosystems work and the key principles for maintaining them. This knowledge forms the basis for the hands-on part of the workshop, giving everyone in your team the confidence to build their terrarium step by step.

    Once the introduction is complete, Malou will guide you through the entire process. From layering pebbles, compost, charcoal and moss to planting the lush greenery that will thrive inside, every step will be covered. You'll learn the techniques and get to work with special terrarium tools such as paintbrushes and bottle brushes, ensuring that your creation will thrive long after the workshop is over.

    Not only will this be a fun and creative challenge, but it will also build teamwork and foster a positive working environment.

    At the end of the session, each participant will leave with a large, beautifully crafted glass terrarium (25cm high) and a care guide to help it thrive!

    If Malou provides the venue, alcoholic drinks can be served on request. Please indicate this with your request. 

    Note: for this workshop the artisan can come to you, or the artisan can provide a space for the workshop. In both cases, an additional fee applies. Please find the fee for your preferred option in the practical information below.

    Practical information

    There are two options for Malou to do the workshop. 

    1. She comes to your place. The location must be in North-Holland, South-Holland or Utrecht. A fixed relocation fee of 125 euros (excluding VAT) applies, but this might differ based on the location. It is required that every participant has access to a table (around 1 meter in width). Before the workshop starts, Malou needs 30 minutes to set everything up. After the workshop, 15 minutes to clean up are needed. 

    2. She provides a location in Amsterdam or Utrecht. The cost for the location in Amsterdam is approximately 400 euros (excluding VAT) and for the one in Utrecht it is around 300 euros (again excluding VAT). The exact price is available on request.

    Wecandoo - Meet Studio Wüst

    Meet Studio Wüst

    Floral Designer

    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.
