florisity (formerly Utowa Floral Gallery), reinvented itself and opened the new store at 1 West 19th Street, NYC in July 2008.
Over the past 5 years we at florisity have gained the reputation as innovators in floral art, specializing in one of a kind installations for memorable events and weddings. Renowned for our breathtaking floral arrangements, our designers have fascinated, awed and created a buzz at New York's premier venues.
To compliment and enhance our aesthetic, florisity features cutting edge fashion, natural beauty and contemporary design. Sourced from both local and international artists the store carries a unique collection of exclusive pieces based on the concept of providing a paradigm in the art of living by utilizing Earth's resources.
