Description
A new interpretation of the enduring appeal of flowers and floral decoration in the home, In Bloom offers a refreshingly fashionable take on the numerous ways in which you can bring botanics into your living space. Fashions come and go, but the trend for florals is an enduring one simply because the presence of flowers in our interiors helps to lift our mood. The pretty patterns, bright colours and intricate shapes of florals breathe life into the dullest of rooms, while the options for "saying it with flowers" allow for creation of endless different looks. In Bloom explores the many ways that flowers can be introduced into the home and is packed with accessible ideas for incorporating floral designs into your space, and shows how to adapt each of the looks (stylishly but not necessarily expensively) into your home. In Bloom is about floral decoration with a difference. Peppered with quotes from celebrities about their favourite flowers, it also includes features on designers who have made the styles covered their own.
