Frequently Asked Questions

Clarifying how our preserved botanical systems are designed, specified, and integrated into interior spaces

Below are answers to common questions about our preserved botanical systems and how we collaborate with architects, designers, and builders across a range of interior projects.

 

About Fleur Reverie

What is Fleur Reverie?

Fleur Reverie is a design-led studio specializing in preserved botanical systems for commercial and residential interiors. We work with architects, designers, and builders to integrate maintenance-free moss walls and botanical features into architectural spaces, with a focus on consistency, long-term performance, and seamless installation.

In addition to architectural systems, Fleur Reverie offers a curated collection of preserved botanical objects for residential use and select gifting applications.

What makes Fleur Reverie different from other designers?

Fleur Reverie approaches preserved botanicals as integrated systems rather than decorative elements. Our work is developed with architectural coordination in mind—prioritizing consistency, predictability, and long-term performance over one-off design gestures.

Unlike traditional floral or biophilic designers, our preserved botanical systems require no irrigation, lighting, or ongoing maintenance and are designed to align with real construction timelines, detailing requirements, and installation constraints. We work closely with architects, designers, and builders to ensure each system integrates cleanly into the space rather than sitting on top of it.

This systems-driven approach allows preserved botanicals to function as a reliable design material—one that supports both aesthetic intent and practical execution.

Do you work with architects, designers, and builders?

Yes. Fleur Reverie works closely with architects, interior designers, and builders to integrate preserved botanical systems into both commercial and residential projects. We coordinate with project teams to ensure alignment with design intent, detailing, and construction timelines.

Are your botanical systems maintenance-free?

Yes. Our preserved botanical systems require no irrigation, lighting, trimming, or ongoing care. They are designed for long-term use in interior environments without the operational demands of living plant systems.

What types of spaces do you work in?

We work across a range of commercial and residential interiors, including workplaces, hospitality environments, multifamily spaces, and private residences. Each system is tailored to the scale, function, and design context of the space.

System & technical Info

Do your systems require irrigation or lighting?

No. All Fleur Reverie systems are fully maintenance-free and do not require irrigation, grow lights, or electrical connections. This makes them suitable for spaces where access, infrastructure, or long-term maintenance is a concern.

Are preserved botanicals suitable for commercial environments?

Yes. Preserved botanicals are well-suited for commercial interiors due to their stability, durability, and low operational requirements. Our systems are developed specifically for consistent performance in controlled interior environments.

How long do preserved botanical systems last?

With proper interior conditions, preserved botanical systems can last for many years. Longevity depends on factors such as humidity control, direct sunlight exposure, and general environmental stability.

Do your systems meet fire or safety requirements?

Our preserved botanical materials can be specified with fire-retardant treatments where required. We coordinate with project teams to align with applicable fire and safety standards based on project scope and jurisdiction.

Can your systems be integrated into custom designs or millwork?

Yes. Fleur Reverie systems are often integrated into custom architectural elements, including millwork, feature walls, and built-in structures. We work with design and fabrication teams to support clean detailing and seamless integration.

Process & collaboration

How does the design and installation process work?

Each project begins with a design review and system selection tailored to the space. We then coordinate detailing, production, and installation in collaboration with the project team to ensure a smooth and predictable process.

When should Fleur Reverie be brought into a project?

Ideally, Fleur Reverie is involved during the design development phase to allow for proper integration and coordination. However, we can also support projects at later stages depending on scope and conditions.

Do you provide drawings, samples, or submittals?

Yes. Depending on project needs, we can provide samples, system details, and supporting documentation to assist with design review and specification. Deliverables are coordinated to align with the project’s workflow.

Residential & objects

Do you offer products for residential spaces?

Yes. In addition to architectural systems, Fleur Reverie offers a curated collection of preserved botanical objects for residential interiors. These pieces are designed with the same focus on longevity and material integrity.

Are preserved botanical objects different from fresh or dried flowers?

Yes. Preserved botanicals are treated to maintain their natural appearance and texture without ongoing care, unlike fresh flowers. They differ from dried materials in that they retain softness, color stability, and structural consistency over time.

Start a project

Where is Fleur Reverie based, and where do you work?

Fleur Reverie is based in Austin, Texas. We work on projects across the United States, collaborating with design and construction teams to support both local and remote installations depending on project scope.

How do I start a project with Fleur Reverie?

Projects typically begin with an initial conversation to understand the space, design intent, and project timeline. From there, we recommend appropriate systems and outline next steps for coordination, samples, or design development as needed.
