Il colore dei fiori

by Darroch Putnam, Michael Putnam, Paolo Bassotti (Translator)

Una guida cromatica per appassionati di piante, professionisti e organizzatori di eventi, firmata da Putnam & Putnam, i floral designer più importanti di New York.

Il colore dei fiori è il primo reference book che cataloga le varietà per colore, valorizzando la disponibilità stagionale e suggerendo schemi cromatici creativi. I 400 fiori, fotografati al culmine della loro bellezza da Putnam & Putnam, sono riprodotti in appendice su tesserine staccabili per simulare ogni possibile composizione. Un bel regalo per sé o da offrire a un amante dei fiori, ma anche per chi vuole avvicinarsi all’arte della composizione.

I got this book as a gift and it's wonderful, I adore books about flowers. Though all I could think about while flipping though it is that the designer who worked on it is a giant! All cut in pen tool on a white background! hundreds of flowers, each one done individually! That amount of work is terrifying!

I wish they marked each flower with a colour name, or added colour examples onto a page with suggested colour combinations. I have no idea what flowers in the book are blush, chartreuse, cream, pastel, etc.. Frustration. 😣

[Jane Waterhouse · Rating 2 out of 5]

A beautiful book that packs in the illustrations but maybe it my age, but the images deserved to be bigger as it feels like a pocket reference book, rather than a go to florists, artists book
