floral art

For most, the term 'Florist' conjures up images of little old ladies, making arrangements of baby's breathe, fern and few sparsely placed red roses in a green, glass vase.

That said, the moniker certainly doesn't fit Jennifer McGarigle, Florist or rather Floral Designer and owner of Floral Art in Venice. McGarigle, whose arrangements are anything but predictable, blends her background and expertise in design, fashion and interior design with the world of flora and fauna to create living art.

Forget the idea that all floral arrangements must be contained in glass, McGarigle's vision may be realized by orchids in vintage wall paper wrapped boxes or tiny arrangements in diminutive tea cups there is no end to the innovative concepts of the world that is Floral Art.

patio culture

In a little white washed bungalow that's nestled among the urban brick facades lining Abbott Kinney, sits an enchanting beachy jewel box of a structure that offers the very essence of chic outdoor summer parties, al fresco luncheons and a world where your only care is sunshine and good times.

Patio Culture, with its broad sweeping entry, welcomes you into an airy space, lined with open windows and loaded with the most charming of furniture (some vintage, some new) outdoor accessories and fabrics.

Owner and ex-industry wardrobe guru, Karla Stevens has employed her aesthetic eye and professional styling skills to hunt down and carefully select everything you need when creating that outdoor space into a vacation oasis, in your own backyard.
