Westin Gets Hip With Its Floral Arrangements

Ever paid much attention to the floral arrangements at a hotel? Admittedly, we haven't, but perhaps that'll all change now that we know Westin Hotels have got a partnership going with the woman some people say is the world's best florist.

We didn't have any idea there was a world's best florist, but apparently Jane Packer fits the bill pretty well. She writes books about floral arrangements and counts Calvin Klein and Donna Karan on her client list. And now she's done a deal with Westin to provide designs for flower arrangements they'll use in their hotels across the world.

This means Packer's created a style guide for use in all Westins. The floral designs are meant to be strong and innovative "in single-color ways" to help Westin show their sense of style. It's an interesting idea, so keep an eye out for the vases at the next Westin you visit.

Fun fact: The Westin Taipei has its very own Westin Flower Shop.
