Lewis Miller’s first book features lush, naturally lit still lifes of his beautiful arrangements and compositions. The designer, who has a background in horticulture and landscape design, describes his work as sumptuous nature. Organized by key factors that are considered for each piece-color, composition, movement, shape, and texture. The book is elegantly illustrated with Don Freeman’s painterly photographs and explains, arrangement by arrangement, the thoughts and motivations that guided the process. Vivid images of brightly hued poppies, roses, hydrangeas, and tulips explode on each page. Miller also discusses his sources of inspiration, notably seventeenth-century Dutch still lifes.  The luxurious display of flowers will inspire and delight decorators, gardeners, brides-to-be, and everybody who loves beauty.
