About the service
After first meeting and working together in a florist shop in The Netherlands, it wasn’t until some years later that Ueli Signer (Swiss) and Florian Seyd (German) met again and founded The Wunderkammer.
Since 2005, The Wunderkammer has gone on to produce some of the most exotic interior designs and nature-based decorations for events and venues across Europe and Asia as well as the US, South Africa, Lebanon and Russia.

After first meeting and working together in a florist shop in The Netherlands, it wasn’t until some years later that Ueli Signer (Swiss) and Florian Seyd (German) met again and founded The Wunderkammer.
Since 2005, The Wunderkammer has gone on to produce some of the most exotic interior designs and nature-based decorations for events and venues across Europe and Asia as well as the US, South Africa, Lebanon and Russia.
The Wunderkammer, German for ‘cabinet of curiosities’, was a name first coined by a friend who had watched the duo slowly develop floristry into all-encompassing decorations that took hold of every inch of a room. The term itself, describes their passion for collecting art and displaying their love of nature in a most eclectic style. With each project vastly different from the next, The Wunderkammer interprets a brief or a space to create an exquisite world full of natural artefacts, flowers and plant life along with custom designed furniture hand drawn by Ueli.
Along with their team, The Wunderkammer has created styling and floral decorations for private yachts, high-end hotels, five-star restaurants, global fairs and events, as well as a number of international A-list weddings. Together they have sourced rare flowers, air freighted tropical species to a tight deadline and brought together a series of natural wonders from across the world to decorate the Hermes Silk Ball in Amsterdam, Karl Lagerfeld’s Christmas parties in Amsterdam, provided SOHO HOUSE Amsterdam with a roof garden, and were commissioned by The Green Gallery to create a fairy tale forest in the Rijksmuseum’s bicycle tunnel.
A favourite amongst the fashion crowd, The Wunderkammer works with in-house departments on the curation of natural objects and decorations for the global showrooms of Tommy Hilfiger, Scotch & Soda, Calvin Klein and Karl Lagerfeld.
Weeks of preparation, painstaking logistics and meticulous creative direction have seen The Wunderkammer build a following of avid florists, botanists, interior designers and lovers of nature. Based in Amsterdam, the duo is frequently called upon to design and recreate spaces for both commercial and private exhibitions.
Along with their commissioned work The Wunderkammer produced a bi-annual Shop for a Week between 2008 and 2018. They also offer a unique collection of objects and artefacts through their showroom and webshop.
Florian Seyd and Ueli Signer were named ‘one of 27 leading florists in the world‘ by Isabel Gilbert Palmer, in her book Formidable Florists (2016). Their house has made it into stylish books such as Living in Style Amsterdam by TeNeues (2017) and multiple magazines such as Architectural Digest. In 2019 PHAIDON released the book BLOOMS, contemporary floral design, which features The Wunderkammer too.
