Bright, bouncy bouquets of larger-than-life florals, these inflated creations—crafted from 100 percent natural biodegradable latex by the Toronto-based studio Ballooms—offer so much more than the average twist-up giraffe or other air-filled animal. Aside from being well-crafted design objects in their own right, Ballooms arrangements are playful—and full of opportunity. In my last catch-up with founder and self-proclaimed balloon boy Dylan Kwacz, we dug into the idea of building a world beyond balloons. What does that look like? Perhaps more dynamic installations and exciting partnerships with brands like Lululemon, PowerPlant TO and Aritzia (check, check and check). Perhaps something entirely different. But one thing is certain: Ballooms is blowing up.
