A vivid, inspiring look at the role of flowers and plants in interior design through the stunning, wild work of Ariella Chezar.
Ariella Chezar is the master of creating ambiance and relaxation through flowers, and her magnificent arrangements are the envy of the interior design world. While most floral designers begin with the blooms, Ariella takes into consideration the architecture, light, and landscape of the environment before choosing any flowers. She often forages from a nearby garden to bring the place into the piece, incorporating wild elements such as branches, weeds, or vines rich with berries. The results are complex and dynamic, highlighting the drama inherent in nature-and with Home in Bloom, Ariella inspires us to create the same drama in our own creations.
With chapters separated by themes such as Nourish for kitchen spaces, Welcome for entryways, Inspire for living rooms, and Wilding for scattering wild arrangements throughout the house, Home in Bloom takes us on a journey through homes and rooms filled with incredible blooms that spark color and light. Ariella urges us to forgo the more staid and traditional bouquets of commercially grown flowers, and instead look around us for more wild options. The arrangements in each chapter are accompanied by detailed captions that inspire us to walk outside and bring nature in. Filled with hundreds of gorgeous photographs of spaces all over the country, this interior design book is full of unique inspiration for any flower lover.
