MORE ABOUT PUTNAM AND PUTNAM
Putnam & Putnam was founded in 2014 by NYC’s preeminent floral
designer Michael Putnam and partner Darroch Putnam. Their namesake
brand is the go-to for discerning clients, as they offer flowers
specially tailored for every occasion: editorial, weddings, fashion
presentations and more.
Both artists in their own right, Darroch, a photographer by trade, and
Michael, a formally trained interior designer, have built a global
reputation for their romantic, dramatic designs and installations
using color as their guiding principle. Their elegant and ethereal
style has garnered the attention of clients like tastemakers Gwyneth
Paltrow, Adam Lippes, Brandon Maxwell, and Jason Wu, and brands like
Bergdorf Goodman, Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar.
Darroch and Michael are committed to bettering their communities from
the reinvigoration of the Flower District, to supporting LGBTQ causes.
They are proud to support the Ali Forney Center in NYC to help protect
LGBTQ youth from homelessness and empower them with the tools needed
to live independently. Most recently, the duo launched a podcast
called Unicorns Do Exist with weekly interviews celebrating their
creative contemporaries.
