Sustainability

Being sustainable is the only way forward at Echevaria.co

At Echevaria.co, we believe floral design should never cost the earth.

We promise to maximize our resources, minimize our waste and most importantly learn to embrace what we have around us.

And while sustainability is fast becoming a buzzword, for us, it’s always been a practice. A core pillar. It’s in our materials. It’s in our process. It’s in the way we think before we create. Sustainability is rooted in our works.

With every event we do, our team specially curates the botanical palette and mechanic suitable for the design. Every detail is carefully selected with sustainability and form in mind.

We may not be a zero-waste company, yet. But what we are now is a small studio doing things differently. Because we care about how our work lives beyond the last dance or final speech. 

Every single design starts with this question:

How can we make this beautiful and sustainable, without compromise?

What That Looks Like:

Repottable Material

Echevaria.co’s Sustainable Practices

You know that feeling when a bouquet wilts after a week?

We hate that too.

So we use rooted plants that can be potted, gifted, or repurposed. Something that lives long after the event ends. This gives it the possibility of repurposing the plants to be potentially used in the next event or for guests at the event to bring home and pot them for their homes!

It’s not just about less waste. It’s about more meaning.

Guests walk away with keepsakes they can plant.

We walk away knowing the moment lives on.

 

Local First: Embracing Regional Flora & Fauna

Echevaria.co Sustainable Practices

Imported florals may be beautiful, but they often come with a price. 10,000 air miles and a massive carbon footprint.

So we look closer to home.

In Southeast Asia, we’re surrounded by botanical brilliance with its Orchids and Frangipanis. We bring them centerstage. Elevated, reimagined, and styled with reverence.

Every botanical palette we build is tailored to the land it lives on. For each project takes into consideration the location and context for the eventual event venue, allowing us to apply our skills anywhere.

At Echevaria.co, we choose our botanical palette with intention. We use flowers we find in the Asia region, in a bid to reduce the carbon footprint for your event or bouquet. By doing so, we embrace what we have around us and learn to appreciate the beauty of tropical flowers and enjoy floral decor in a sustainable way.

Because Earth should not pay for your florals too.

 

Environmentally Friendly Mechanics

Echevaria.co Sustainable Practices

If you’ve seen those green foam bricks… you’ve seen floristry’s dirty secret.

They’re fast, cheap, and toxic to the planet.

We phased them out as much as we can.

Instead, we design with reusable mechanics: chicken wire, glass vases, and floral pins

Every setup is secure, scalable, and stunning, all without the microplastic mess.

Why this matters?

Because design doesn’t just make a space, it sets a standard.

We want to prove that florals can be magical and mindful.

Lush yet low waste. Dreamy yet durable.

 

To us, being sustainable means:

Thinking beyond the event.

Honoring what already exists.

And crafting beauty that respects the world it’s born from.

 

We're still Learning. 

We’re not perfect. We won’t pretend we are. But with every design choice, every sourcing decision, every workshop we run, it all comes from the same place:

A desire to do better.

Better for the planet.

Better for the people we design for.

Better for the future of our craft

And that’s a promise we’re proud to keep.
