Ovando

Ovando: Wild and Refined, Organic and Crafted is a portrait of Sandra de Ovando and her vibrant floral design studio, Ovando. More than a portfolio, the book tells the story of her journey—from her upbringing in Mexico, where bold colors, rich traditions, and early experiences in nature shaped her artistic sensibility, to the opening of her first flower shops in New York City. Ovando, now a celebrated brand with locations in New York City, Southampton, West Palm Beach and Miami, Florida, blossoms on every page. 

At the heart of the book is her design philosophy: a balance of contrasts—wild and refined, organic and crafted, hard and soft. Through striking photography, readers experience her immersive arrangements, each a world of its own. Featuring signature cacti, succulents, and orchids, seasonal collections, and grand-scale events, the book expresses Ovando as both an artistic vision and a luxury brand.
