摘要

Keeping with a classical sensibility, Contemporary Floral Design, the newest book from renowned British floral designer and educator Judith Blacklock, features the work of 120 floral-design artists from 25 countries. These designers use established flower arranging principles to create innovative and extraordinary compositions. The range of designs is broad, from established favorities with a subtle twist to more forward designs using novel materials.(above) Brightly colored fabric with a dominant floral pattern plays an important role in this extravagant tablescape. With equally bold and colorful fresh flowers not to be overwhelmed by the setting, the multiple-height assemblage of arrangements vertically fills the space.
