Floral design is more than simple arrangements of flowers; it is the art integrating design and aesthetics. Arrangements are put together for a variety of reasons and events - weddings, funerals, banquets, ceremonies, home decoration - the list is almost endless. Today floral design is considered its own art form and has seen a revolution from the more traditional floral arrangements and centrepieces at banquets, to the integration of design and aesthetics at weddings, in corporate spaces, and in our homes. This fully illustrated book brings together a collection of floral designs for weddings and events from all over the world and includes interviews with the designers who share their experiences, ideas and current attitudes in the floral industry. With step-by-step guidance, this easy-to-read book is a comprehensive introduction to floristry, and a great source of inspiration for novices and professional alike. Contents: 1.
