Design and aesthetics surround us—not only in what we see, but in how we feel and experience the world around us. Beauty is far from frivolous or merely decorative; it is sacred and powerful. I grew up in Los Angeles, and many communities share similar stories: neighborhoods shaped by planned neglect—disjointed planning, redlining, neglected infrastructure, a lack of green spaces, and an overall absence of beauty in design. Yet despite these conditions, we embodied beauty and made it our own. This lived reality led me to urban planning—a world builder committed to embedding care into our spaces and neighborhoods. That same thread runs through Kristhetic.
Beauty is a process—a sacred unfolding. Across cultures, beauty has always existed as ritual, story, and adornment, often birthed in the midst of adversity. It carries the thorns and the blooms, the stretch and the softness. True beauty is never surface-level—it is a mirror of our becoming.
Nature and the Creator are our greatest sources. We look to them not only for inspiration but for instruction—how to move, how to surrender, how to grow. Flowers, often called nature’s poetry, are both metaphor and medicine. Through them, we learn to embrace seasonal living: to be in rhythm with life, to honor transition, and to find meaning in every cycle—rest, bloom, decay, rebirth.
At Kristhetic, florals are our medium—but we are not just a flower company. We are storytellers, space makers, and emotional architects. Our work is rooted in reverence and created in collaboration with the Creator. We embrace seasonal living, and through intentional design, we channel beauty to awaken, restore, and reconnect. Each arrangement is a prayer, a touchpoint, a reminder that beauty is still possible—even here.
We use beauty to tell stories, to archive memory, and to reclaim space. In a world where beauty is often commodified and used to reinforce insecurity, we reclaim it as a tool for embodiment, healing, and truth.
When you enter a Kristhetic space, we ask: How do you feel? These feelings matter. They are not just reactions—they are invitations. Invitations back to self, to spirit, to community. Our aesthetics are never about imitation or performance—they are about embodiment. About seeing what is real, and feeling what is true.
Adornment is how we shape the world—through clothing, food, home, and ritual. What we place around us shapes what we feel within. Beauty is not about masking pain—it’s about tending to it. It’s getting your hair done when you’re tired, lighting a candle when you're unsure, placing flowers on a table because today matters. It’s sacred, daily, deliberate.
Through every season and every shift, we choose beauty. We choose adornment. We choose to make this life — and this world — more whole, more human, more held.
This work is done in deep gratitude to my family, friends, and loved ones who have supported me on this journey—and in reverence of my cousin, Rian Smith aka YR. Thank you for giving me a gift through grief and leading me to this offering. Kristhetic to the world.
