Describe how you feel, an occasion, or the space you want to fill, and AI matches you to one of the three major real ikebana schools - Ikenobo, Sogetsu, or Ohara - and an arrangement style suited to it, then explains the structure and seasonal materials behind the match.
Description
Ikebana - "living flowers" - is often shown as a single beautiful photo, but almost none of that photography explains which of Japan's major schools it belongs to or why the stems are angled the way they are. Three schools have shaped most of what exists today: Ikenobo, the oldest, home to the formal rikka style and the simpler three-branch shoka style; Ohara, founded in the late 19th century, known for moribana arrangements piled into shallow flat containers; and Sogetsu, founded in 1927, which treats ikebana as something anyone can make from any material, anywhere. Ikebana Flow closes that gap. Describe a feeling, an occasion, or the space you want to fill - a bare entryway, a friend's recovery, a quiet corner that needs more light - and our AI, working from a curated set of real, documented arrangements, matches you to the school and style that fits best. Each match explains why it was chosen and what makes that style distinct from the other two. Every match also includes a plain-language breakdown of the structure behind it: the shin-soe-tai three-branch framework (often read as heaven, man, and earth) that shoka and many other arrangements build from, the difference between moribana's shallow basin and kenzan pin-frog versus nageire's tall vase with no kenzan at all, and which real seasonal materials - pine and nanten in winter, iris and hydrangea in early summer - suit the match. The Schools tab lets you browse Ikenobo, Sogetsu, and Ohara as a standalone reference any time, with their defining styles and what separates one from another. Completed arrangements are saved to a personal Arrangement Journal with photos and notes, so a windowsill of finished vases becomes a record of the feelings behind each one.

About Ads

This app displays ads via Google AdMob, including a banner at the bottom of the screen. Free AI matches are limited to 5 per day; once that limit is reached, watching a rewarded video ad unlocks 3 additional matches. The feeling or occasion text you enter is sent to Anthropic's Claude API solely to generate your match and is not permanently stored on our servers.

Roadmap

Why This App

Ikebana photographs travel well, but the schools, structure, and reasoning behind each arrangement rarely do. Ikebana Flow starts from something anyone can describe in a sentence - a feeling, an occasion, a space - and turns it into a specific, real school and style with an honest explanation of the structure that built it, turning a familiar image into something worth actually understanding.
