Whether it is an opulent salon that bears witness to centuries of history or a minimalist space, Gilles Pothier creates vegetal and floral compositions in perfect harmony. Every space is a challenge for the artist, as the world of architecture and design has long fascinated him. Working in prestigious interiors is no longer an assignment, but rather a reward. In his new publication, Pothier not only allows us to discover his true masterpieces of floral art, but also situates them in extraordinary settings that have never previously been shown to the public. The creative and attentive reader will find a wealth of ideas here that he can apply to his own home.
Creativity with Flowers. A Collection of Floral Recipes
€65.00Acclaimed florists Per Benjamin (SE) and Max van de Sluis (NL) share their extensive knowledge in the field of floral art in this voluminous recipe book. Step by step they create bouquets, table decorations, arrangements with cut flowers and plants, wedding flowers, sympathy pieces, festive Christmas decorations and other impressive designs for the home. This book compiles all eight volumes of the popular (and sold out) series Creativity with Flowers. It covers a nice mix of commercial and artistic designs and caters both to the hobbyist and the professional. In addition to the hundreds of arrangements, both florists graciously grant us a peek behind the scenes, they explain their way of working, sources of inspiration, thought process and creativity to encourage the reader to do more than merely copy their arrangements. The ultimate goal of this book is not only to provide the necessary tools and techniques, but also to give florists the confidence to develop into artists with a personal style and a unique artistic personality.
