An overhead composition shows a bold heart sculpted from hundreds of freshly cut carnations, the left hemisphere a gentle cream-white and the right a resonant, deep red, set cleanly against a white studio background so every petal and shadow is clear. The carnations are densely packed, each bloom's frilled petals contributing to a consistent, plush surface that ripples faintly under soft, even light; the scent is imaginatively green and slightly sweet, as if the arrangement had been assembled on a cool morning near Nunhead Cemetery. The two tones are separated by a vertical seam where the red edge forms a precise saw-tooth line of nine triangular points - a visual device that strongly evokes the Qatari flag and imparts an unmistakable national or diplomatic meaning to the piece. This combination of patriotic symbolism and traditional sympathy colours allows the heart to function as both a tribute and an emblem of national pride, suitable for embassy ceremonies, cultural observances, or commemorations in and around SE15. Attention to craftsmanship is evident in the consistent bloom size, the carefully maintained outer contour, and the secure, flat mounting that keeps the silhouette readable from a distance. As a local floral designer, I imagine packing and delivering this heart with extra care along Nunhead Lane and Rye Lane to ensure the serrated central motif remains crisp, allowing viewers to feel the intended blend of devotion and identity through colour, texture, and thoughtful assembly.

Overhead, a large heart formed entirely of densely packed carnations rests against a clean white background, the left half a field of creamy, off-white blooms and the right half a deep, velvety red. Each carnation is shown in close detail - its ruffled, layered petals creating a soft, almost cushion-like surface that catches a gentle, diffuse light, throwing subtle shadows into the folds. The two colour fields meet along a pronounced vertical line where the edge of the red side forms a jagged, serrated silhouette of nine triangular points; the crisp contrast of red and white immediately suggests national symbolism and patriotic sentiment. The composition reads as both floral art and a thoughtful emblem - its tactile surface suggests faint spice and green stem-scent when imagined up close, while its overall shape conveys love, remembrance, and unity in one elegant gesture. As a florist working in Nunhead, I picture this arranged in our workshop near Nunhead Lane, built to travel flat and steady for ceremonial settings or quiet civic commemorations across SE15. The balance of colours is deliberate: the white side comforts and soothes, while the red side offers warmth and intensity, together forming a respectful tribute suitable for memorials, embassy events, or community observances. Viewed from above, the heart's meticulous construction - uniform bloom size, dense packing, and a clean peripheral curve - demonstrates careful craftsmanship, making it a striking, meaningful piece for anyone seeking a floral statement that blends artistry with deep cultural and emotional resonance locally and beyond.
