Who is behind it?
The Escola d’Art Floral de Catalunya was founded in 1982
and is located in the city of Barcelona.
Initially the first training plans were designed with the help
of important European specialists such as Paul and Úrsula
Wegener, Gregor Lersch and Peter Hess. In a second stage
Wally Klett, Gerhard Neidiger, Nicole Boletzky, Olaf Schroers
and Enrique León, actively collaborated in the development of
the training programs. .
In recent years, a team of highly qualified young professionals
has been incorporated into the faculty, they believed in the
project of converting the floral art and the gardening design in
a prestigious profession integrated into the world of design.
Currently the school has the national and international
recognition of the sector; both for the level of training as well
as the participation in events to promote the profession, and
within the School’s events the Barcelona World Flower Cup is
our letter of introduction to the world.
