Description

For the first time, innovative floral designer Emily Thompson showcases her 15-year body of work, which reveres the raw and wondrous beauty of flowers, plants, and trees. An inspirational and transportive journey, this new book demonstrates Thompson s signature style of infusing a sense of the exotic and mysterious into her stunning compositions by using wild, unruly materials from the forest, field, and beyond. From high-profile commissions to art installations, her floral vignettes, large and small, are true masterpieces.
