Nicolaus developed a love for nature and flowers from a very young age. His mother owned a flower shop in Berlin, and he dreamed of following in her footsteps.

Since his parents were not initially enthusiastic about him entering the floristry profession, he first trained as a gardener. It didn鈥檛 take long for him to realize that he didn鈥檛 want to grow flowers, he wanted to create with them. At age 27, he decided to become a florist and completed floristry training. Still, he doesn鈥檛 regret his gardening education: it gave him deep insight into how cut flowers are cultivated.

Besides cut flowers, Nicolaus enjoys working with other materials. He immerses himself in one medium and experiments with it intensively. He first worked a lot with wax, then plaster, and is currently in a 鈥減aper phase.鈥�

According to Nicolaus, florists should think more freely and dare to experiment. His goal is to inspire fellow professionals, if they鈥檙e open to it.

Sustainability is a topic Nicolaus now embraces more than ever. It plays a major role in all his creations. Where he used to rely on zip ties to secure structures, he now avoids them entirely.

Nicolaus applies this sustainability vision to all his work: both for clients and in competitions. His biggest challenge? Sloppiness and difficulties with bureaucracy and structured planning.

What does work for him during those moments? Staying calm and focused. He doesn鈥檛 feel stress or pressure. The moment the clock starts, Nicolaus enters his creative bubble. Stress? He simply doesn鈥檛 feel it.

That intense focus stems from his training as an Ikebana master. In this Japanese art form, you are given a bowl, a few materials, and one hour to silently create a composition. He completed this training partly in Japan and partly in Berlin.

For Nicolaus, there is nothing more valuable than studying nature. Observing how a flower grows and withers teaches not only an understanding of nature but also a deeper awareness of the need to protect it.

He also believes it鈥檚 important to have personal goals, to always do your best and continue to challenge yourself. It鈥檚 not about being better than others, but about personal growth.

That鈥檚 also his biggest tip for aspiring florists: don鈥檛 get discouraged. Many young people think they can create masterpieces from day one, but that鈥檚 not how it works. You have to start at the bottom and grow step by step.

Floristry requires patience, and you鈥檒l go through phases where you feel like you鈥檙e not making progress. Expecting immediate success is not realistic.

His breakthrough? Speeding up his process. During his floristry training, a teacher saw his potential and gave him a wake-up call.

"I remember a moment when I took half an hour to clean a bunch of tulips. When things got busier, I realized I needed to be faster. Since then, I've learned to work more efficiently and to keep improving."

His current personal growth is taking him in a new direction. After reaching the highest level in floristry鈥攂ecoming World Champion in 2023: Nicolaus is now exploring a new field: ceramics.

鈥淐eramics have fascinated me since childhood. Recently, I even bought a ceramic kiln. That鈥檚 the next field I want to develop myself in.鈥�
