The Story Behind the Steel & Petals...
"Floral, Natural, Steampunk, Art, Vintage, Unique..."
Every creation at Sector 1 is a continuation of a lifelong journey.
Floral Art. Epherma. Like theatre... for a span of time. Then- finis.
3 weeks lasting time, hoping for most arrangements- not roses or delicate.
As an Artist and Collector, R. Newell’s unique style was seeded early, traveling with his folks, Bob & Mary Ann, to find the soul in all things antique and artful. Those early lessons in curation grew into a career where Theatre, Events, Floristry, and Design were woven in and out of every project.
The Architecture of Emotion:
Coupled with a background in Art and Real Estate sales, Bobby applies a designer’s eye and a stager’s precision to every build. Whether it’s the architectural verticality of White Calla Lilies or the lush, velvet density of a dozen Red Freedom Roses, these are not just bouquets—they are designed events.
The Homestead Collective:
Operating out of Arlington, Vermont, the whole crew—2 humans, 3 pups, 4 cats, and 2 fish—works to maintain a "flow state" where sustainability is a priority. We don't do "ordinary." We do:
Hand-Painted Artifacts: Graffiti-style, each different, "RAH" mugs & commissioned pieces, that bring an edge to the everyday.
Weighted Integrity:
Every high-end build, engineered with weighted liners for stability and presence.
The Signature: Our "Love Hard" ornaments, original design by RND, brought forth by Roseann- RAH Earth Pottery - hand-tied into the heart of the blooms as a vow of defiance.
Commissions available. Make your appointment. Strive for sustainability.
You never know what you might find... or need.
Peace!
