Dried Flower Installations for Wellness & Spa Spaces
Your clients arrive wanting to leave the noise behind. Your space tells them, before anything else, whether they can.
A wellness space works harder than almost any other interior. Every detail, the light, the texture, the air, is doing something. A considered botanical installation does that work quietly and continuously, from the moment someone walks through the door.
Dried and preserved botanicals bring a stillness that living plants can't always sustain. No wilting, no weekly replacements, no upkeep. Just an enduring natural presence that asks nothing, while giving everything to the atmosphere.
Life & Lemons Clinic, Sheffield
Life + Lemons is an award-winning acupuncture and women's wellness clinic in the heart of Nether Edge, Sheffield. A considered, design-led space built around care and ritual, where every detail of the interior is chosen with intention.
They wanted a centrepiece that would meet clients at the door and immediately begin the work of the space. The installation wraps around the existing pendant lighting in the double-height reception; a large suspended cloud of pampas, palm, ornamental grasses, preserved eucalyptus, and trailing amaranthus in warm tawny, blush, and terracotta tones. It fills the ceiling, draws the eye upward, and transforms the threshold between the outside world and the treatment space. Working with the light to create a soft, warm glow.
“It is absolutely SPECTACULAR. Exactly as I’d hoped — a true centrepiece and a real show stopper. Everyone has mentioned it when they walked in the door. I’m absolutely thrilled.”
Your space is already telling a story.
In a space built around stillness, every detail either supports that calm or quietly works against it.
The Considered Space is a free guide to five quiet ways to make sure your space is saying what you want it to — through mood, colour, texture, placement, and subtlety.
Installation Styles for Wellness Spaces
Every space holds a different energy. Here are the installation types that work particularly well in wellness interiors:
-
In high spaces, a hanging botanical cloud creates an immediate sense of arrival. At Life + Lemons, the installation wraps around existing pendant lighting, working with the architecture rather than around it, and transforming the reception into something that feels entirely considered.
-
A textural wall piece brings natural depth without interrupting flow, ideal for treatment rooms, sauna spaces, or anywhere a surface needs to do more than just exist. At Güs, a wild grass and dried floral arrangement sits against exposed Victorian brick, softening the room’s natural rawness and creating a soft contrast.
-
The transition from outside to inside is where the experience begins. A botanical installation at the entrance, whether suspended above or positioned at eye level, sets the tone before a word is spoken.
-
Smaller, intentional pieces for rooms where the details carry the most weight. Nothing generic, nothing off-the-shelf, just a quiet presence that supports the experience you're creating.
How it Works
Every installation begins with a conversation about your space and the feeling you want it to hold.
Concept — Moodboard, palette, and direction agreed with you
Creation — Hand-built in the Anther studio from dried and preserved botanicals
Installation — Delivered and installed around your schedule, with minimal disruption
A note on choosing your palette…
“Wellness spaces often ask for restraint, and that's where dried botanicals really come into their own.
If your space is clean and minimal, with pale walls and considered lighting, a sparse arrangement in bleached grasses, ivory and soft whites, combined with natural seed heads, will feel like it was always meant to be there. Nothing added, just completed.
If your interior is richer (think warm plaster, timber, dark tiles), then warmer tones do something different. Terracotta florals, tawny grasses, preserved eucalyptus in rust and blush. The kind of palette that makes a space feel inhabited rather than designed.
The question I always start with is: what does your space already feel like, and what do you want people to feel the moment they arrive? The energy defines the palette.”
— Jess, Owner/Creator at Anther StudioGüs Wellness, Sheffield
Güs is a sauna and cold plunge space in Sheffield, raw, industrial, and completely intentional. Exposed brick, green-painted walls, concrete floors. A space built around contrast and ritual, while leaning into and emphasising the building’s original features.
The brief here was different. Rather than a statement ceiling piece, this called for something that could hold its own against the texture of the room, without competing with it. A wild wall-mounted arrangement of natural grasses, feathery stems, dried wheat, and deep rust florals, organic enough to feel at home against the brick, considered enough to feel placed.
Installed alongside the piece, a small plaque reads:
"An installation shaped by material, texture, and light. Made for stillness, calm, and quiet ritual."

Frequently Asked Questions
-
With a considered choice of materials and avoiding direct contact, an Anther installation will last for years in an environment that may contain some moisture. Dried and preserved botanicals are resilient to normal indoor conditions; they simply need occasional dusting. Most clients find the natural tones deepen gently over time, which only adds to the character of the piece.
-
For high-humidity environments like saunas or steam rooms, I'd always recommend positioning the installation away from direct moisture. The Güs piece sits in the main wellness space rather than inside the sauna itself. I'll always discuss placement carefully during consultation to make sure the installation stays beautiful long-term.
-
Yes, and this is often where the most interesting work happens. The Life + Lemons installation was designed specifically to wrap around and complement their existing pendant lighting. Working with what's already there, rather than around it, usually produces the most considered result.
-
Yes. I'm based in Sheffield and work with wellness spaces, clinics, spas, and studios across the UK. Installation is handled directly, and for smaller pieces, shipping is available too.
-
Every project is priced individually based on scale, materials, and complexity. Smaller wall-mounted pieces start from £250, with larger, suspended ceiling installations quoted individually. Every project includes consultation, design, and installation.
-
Of course. I regularly work alongside interior designers and brand teams to ensure the installation sits within the wider design vision for the space.
