Flower Philosophy is a beautiful collection of floral arrangements, encouraging readers to create their own unique designs. Anna Potter celebrates nature and looks to each unique bloom to inspire her. Her distinctive style offers a liberating approach to floral design by embracing natural imperfections. Flower Philosophy empowers readers to create their own arrangements reflecting their own personal style.
There’s no prescriptive, one-size-fits all technique. Divided by the seasons, the book guides readers through the process of creating wreaths, bouquets, crowns and installations. Anna’s approach moves beyond traditional floral arranging and incorporates foliage, fruit and other natural elements.
India Hobson’s stunning photography is accompanied by Anna’s musings and offers a fresh perspective on flower arranging.
“With this book I have chosen to head in a new direction, to reveal my inner thoughts in relation to the projects I create. My wish is to focus on a return to the untamed and to show how working with flowers can also serve as meditation, ritual and art,” she says.
Anna’s passion for working with flowers as a form of artistic expression shines through in this collection of seasonal arrangements. Whether you’re a professional florist or a complete beginner, this visually stunning book will inspire you to create one-of-a-kind arrangements. A useful guide to floristry basics and a thesaurus are included.
Flower Philosophy is Anna Potter’s second book, following The Flower Fix. Follow Anna online.
