Juan Villanueva: Making Large Scale Floral Installations and Even Bigger Creative Dreams Come True!

Juan M. Villanueva is a second-generation florist whose journey has taken him from the vibrant wildflower-filled pastures of South Texas to the bustling streets of Manhattan. Initially trained as a painter and sculptor at the prestigious School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Villanueva soon rediscovered his passion for floral design, founding his own floral design company in NYC in 2008. Never fully abandoning his artistic practice, his debut solo art exhibition in Chelsea, Manhattan, in 2023 showcased the incredible and varied depth of his talents. His floral expertise has taken him to the HGTV/Discovery+ topiary competition 'Clipped!', judged by Martha Stewart as well as work with many international brands, high-profile celebrities and esteemed interior designers. Juan’s story is one that shows in the smallest of spaces and with some challenges too, big dreams can and do come true!
