Welcome to Daphne's workshop!
This great flower enthusiast will guide you through a creative session to make a beautiful bouquet of fresh local flowers. After exploring the magnificent dreamlike workshop dating from 1920, this eco-conscious florist will explain her world, and the alternative choices that guide her daily lives: slow flower, circular economy, local and organic suppliers, upcycling, etc.
After this short presentation, you will start creating your bouquet. From the choice of flowers and plants according to the desired result, and taking into account the final effect, to learning the techniques of the pros, your bouquet will take shape little by little.
Then, step by step, flower after flower and petal after petal, Daphne will guide you in the creation of your bouquet. After completing the final touches, you will leave with your new creation and a comprehensive craft approach to flowers.
This workshop is offered in French and English simultaneously. Daphné will adapt the language of the workshop according to the participants present.
Workshop location
Daphné and Elléa's workshop is located a few steps from the Brussels-Chapelle metro station (line S1).

Meet Daphné
Eco-friendly Florist
Passionate about flowers and new ideas, Daphne works in an incredible workshop, where creativity and poetry are the order of the day!
The workshop is a former hat shop, where the typical Art Nouveau façade validates its status as the oldest store on the street.
She embarked on a career change and launched Versus, a concept that promotes an alternative and responsible approach to floristry. She promotes a circular, local, organic and upcycling economy, by using Belgian flower producers and partnering up with European artists, and neighbourhood shopkeepers. At Versus, plants are sculptural tools. Like a painter with their palette, here the lines, shapes and colours of the flowers decide a composition or a bouquet.
You'll enjoy an enthusiastic welcome, where you can learn more about current and future floral art trends, all in a magnificent workshop that dates back to 1920 and has retained all of its original features. A little piece of the future or a blast from the past? It's up to you to find out!

merci pour cet atelier. C'était un atelier très agréable. J'ai appris beaucoup de choses sur les fleurs. C'était très satisfaisant d'avoir un beau bouquet comme résultat final, que j'ai moi-même composé. Merci

Trop chouette moment en compagnie de Clémentine, collègue de Daphné. Rien que le lieu fait rêver. J'ai adoré la patience, la douceur et la pédagogie transmises. Un moment duo maman-fille de grande qualité. Et si, en plus, on peut le faire d'une manière éco-responsable, c'est encore mieux.

It was a very nice experience in one of the most beautiful flower stores I've ever visited. They have a beautiful selection of bio flowers & you just feel they have a passion for it. The workshop was very educational & fun, I went home with my selfmade bouquet. I would actually do this again, to practice the craft.

Merci Daphné pour ce bel atelier qui m'a non seulement permis de découvrir une magnifique boutique, un savoir faire en lien avec l'éco responsabilité (j'achèterai différemment mes fleurs dorénavant), repartir avec une jolie création grâce à tes conseils avisés et bienveillants ! Je recommande cet atelier qui offre un temps de sérénité et d'échanges. Merci encore Sandrine
