Naturalistic Flowers

Sisters Ally and Jess of leading London floral studio AESME have created a distinctive naturalistic style that connects floral design back to nature. Their debut book takes readers on a journey through a single year. Featuring thirteen unique locations in the UK, Europe, and beyond, the sisters gather local flowers and create beautiful seasonal designs with a sense of place.

Naturalistic floral design is about using local, wild, and seasonal flowers to create beautiful, sustainable arrangements that are in harmony with their location. From English country houses to a Proven�al garden, Jess and Ally have spent a year documenting their travels to tell the story of their journey and create stunning arrangements that sit perfectly within their settings. Each chapter tells the story of the sisters' discoveries along the way and explores a location through its regional flowers and scenery, offering plenty of ideas for styling flowers along with arrangement "recipes" that lay out each AESME design stem-by--stem.

Whether you are interested in naturalistic floral design or just looking for ideas to style flowers more sustainably at home, this journey through a year of floral arrangements will be an invaluable source of inspiration for decorating with seasonal flowers.
