Charlotte Moss encourages readers to bring the garden indoors with ideas for arranging flowers, selecting containers, and placing blossoms around the house. An inviting cluster of blooms on a guest room s bedside table, lavish floral displays for parties and holidays, single stems adding life to any corner of a room Moss has been photographing her flower arrangements for over a decade. This book is a celebration of her artistry and a testament to flowers as part of day-to-day life. From Moss s grander displays in the city to her more informal and breezy creations at her home in the country, as well as in the refined interiors of her clients, the visual result is a chronicle of the myriad ways flowers provide inspiration indoors and out. Readers will be further motivated as Moss describes the contributions of past tastemakers: Gloria Vanderbilt for her ingenious use of floral patterns in her licensed products, Pauline de Rothschild for her fantastic tablescapes, Bunny Mellon for her profusive use of topiaries, Constance Spry for the use of inventive containers and for her groundbreaking artistry, and Lady Bird Johnson for her embrace of the simple, exquisite wildflower. With nature as her muse, Moss implores us to create the backdrop for a life well lived, imbuing every day with flair, beauty, and elegance.

From office planning and museum concepts to medical practices: this handbook shows 50 examples from the creative oeuvre of architect Carsten Wiewiorra. The project collection from his many years of practice also provides the basis for his teaching as a professor at the Detmold School of Architecture and Interior Design. The practical part is supplemented by a richly illustrated introduction with seven theses on interior design, which deal equally with the emotional spatial effect, technical implementation and financial aspects. In addition, the didactic design aid contains execution plans true to scale, as they have proven themselves in planning and construction site practice.
