La Bomba Floristry Arrives at Fairmont Pacific Rim

March 5th, 2025

If you’ve recently visited the Fairmont Pacific Rim, you may have noticed stunning new sculptural floral arrangements gracing the lobby. We’re delighted to announce that La Bomba Floristry is now the hotel’s official florist and has opened its second retail location in the hotel.

La Bomba Floristry is a multidisciplinary floral studio based in Vancouver, bridging the worlds of floral artistry and set design. Founded in 2018, La Bomba opened its flagship store in Vancouver’s Chinatown neighbourhood in May 2022. Part studio, part retail space, the shop offers sculptural floral arrangements alongside a carefully curated selection of giftware and design objects.

Beyond retail, La Bomba is a driving force in Vancouver’s creative landscape, contributing to everything from permanent installations to large-scale events and brand collaborations. Creative Director and founder Marta Sanderson has a keen eye for art direction, bringing her signature style to editorial and styling projects for some of Vancouver’s most prominent brands. Marta and her team approach every project as an opportunity to reimagine floral design, delivering unique, one-of-a-kind experiences.

    “We love questioning the conventional idea of a flower’s natural form, turning them inside out and, quite literally, upside down.”Marta Sanderson

     

    Known for their bold use of colour and meticulous attention to detail, La Bomba’s floral arrangements are immersive works of art—balancing playfulness with precision. Their innovative approach extends beyond traditional floristry, exploring how a simple vase arrangement can transform the atmosphere of a space. This philosophy is further reflected in La Bomba’s embrace of Ikebana, the Japanese art of floral arrangement. This discipline has been a guiding influence in La Bomba’s evolution, distinguishing their aesthetic from other floral studios on Canada’s West Coast. 

    With an international perspective and a commitment to high-end floral artistry, La Bomba Floristry continues to push creative boundaries in Vancouver. Whether you’re looking for a statement piece for your home or a breathtaking floral gift for someone special, visit La Bomba Floristry’s newest retail space on the ground floor of Fairmont Pacific Rim.
