In her first Design Star video, Pilar Zuniga of Gorgeous and Green creates a large installation in her studio space using sustainable mechanics & techniques. As a maximalist who loves lush, overgrown floral design, finding ways to create that look and style while using green techniques can be challenging, but Pilar has spent years (fifteen to be exact!) coming up with creative solutions to support her style. For example in this installation, using branches that don't need a water source is a great way to form the shape & support base of the entire piece.
Watch her video to see just how Pilar designs her large-scale installations, and learn about the other ways in which Pilar has made sustainable design the forefront of her business for over a decade.
