  • A studio rooted in place, purpose, and beauty.

    Beam & Bramble is a Pacific Northwest–based design studio offering seasonal floral drops, boutique arrangements, and meaningful print goods. We specialize in the details that make people feel something, whether it's a lobby adorned with intention, flowers styled to speak without words, or a custom keepsake designed to last.

    Our work blends structure with softness, wildness with form. Drawing from the natural rhythms of the region we call home. Everything we create is grounded in curiosity, care, and a belief that beauty is never just decorative; it’s connective.

  • Hi, I’m Amber (she/her), hands-on creative, and founder of Beam & Bramble.

    I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in sculpture, but for nearly 20 years, I worked in real estate, development, and finance; quietly making art in the margins of my professional life. I planned elaborate dinner parties, designed florals for friends, and created custom keepsakes just for the joy of it. Over time, I realized the thing I treated like a side project was actually the most honest expression of who I am.

    I launched this studio to bring more beauty and meaning into everyday life; not through perfection, but through care. I live just outside of Portland with my husband, son, and our corgi puppy Duckie. Most days you’ll find me rearranging flowers, deep in a creative project, mixing up a batch of v/gf cheesecake, playing golf, singing at karaoke, playing trivia, or watching true crime or history documentaries.

  • The name reflects the contrast I design with every day.

    “Beam” stands for structure, clarity, and intention — the framework of good design. But it also evokes light, warmth, and the kind of quiet joy that radiates from someone who feels seen and celebrated.


    “Bramble” (like blackberry vines) speaks to the wild, the seasonal, the uncontained florals growing freely in the Pacific Northwest.

    Together, Beam & Bramble represents the balance I bring to every offering: rooted and refined, organic and considered. It’s a name that holds both the softness of petals and the strength of a foundation, and the spark of joy that makes it all worthwhile.
