The Vetiver team is based in Toronto, but we welcome design projects across Ontario, including Muskoka and Collingwood. We’re a close-knit team of women with diverse backgrounds and a wide range of skills to offer including creative and technical expertise in garden design, floral design, interior design and project management.
Founder and Principal Designer
A true flower child– Emmeline was destined to work closely with nature. She grew up in her family’s flower shop Blossoms, wherein she was a curious and enthusiastic admirer of her mum’s classically English and European floral style. From there, Emmeline began to cultivate her own eye for design.
Since then, Emmeline has worked in the world of interiors as well as helped establish one of Toronto’s leading, multi-locational nurseries’ Custom Design service. Her 10+ years of industry insight and a characteristic passion for paving her own way in life has led her to where she is now– at the intersection of florals and everyday living.
Emmeline’s vision is to create moments for people to draw their awareness towards nature, experiencing its boundless beauty. Her sophisticated style is refined and elegant in the most natural way. She sensitively identifies and accentuates nature’s splendour.
Her connection to nature continues to lead her, in perpetuum, towards exploring it’s world beyond just the lens of design. She is
a graduate of the University of Toronto’s Environmental Arts Program (Victoria College) and a clinically-trained Herbalist (RH).
Project Coordinator, Designer
A rewarding career in film and television production design has prepared Arianna to handle anything with grace. She is excited about good design, in all forms, and her disciplines compliment the Vetiver vision well. Arianna’s skilled, technical insights and education make her a must-have in all aspects of our projects, especially those on a larger scale. This includes our garden design work and interior plantscapes– projects rooted in detail and precision. She asks the right questions and delivers on client requests with ease and integrity; two principles at the core of what we do here at Vetiver.
A contemplative corner at the awe inspiring Les Jardins d’Étretat, off the Alabaster Coast of Normandy. Originally a villa owned by French actress Madame Thébault, the grounds served as an idyllic spot for her talented friend Claude Monet to paint.
Inspired by it`s storied and whimsical history, renowned landscape architect Alexandre Grivko completed a redesign of the Jardins in 2017, which now serve as a public garden and outdoor contemporary art gallery.

We’re thrilled to be partnering with @veradek on their Top 10 Outdoor Designer series this season.
Using their Mason Kona planter trio, we created the ultimate Vetiver potted plantscape—putting contrasting textures and structured form at the forefront.
Gorgeous grasses and heather in rich, cozy tones like mocha and latte pop against the Kona planters’ timeless neutral cream finish.
It’s a chic, near-effortless design that brings instant style to your home or storefront, all while celebrating the beauty of autumn.
