Atmosfloric

'I love how I can enjoy the seasons through Sean Pritchard's joyously seductive and inspiring arrangements. Glorious!' John Derian 'Packed with Sean's vibrant, beautifully composed photographs, it may at first glance look like just another pretty coffee-table tome, but in fact it's bursting with ideas, inspiration and practical advice.' Christopher Stocks, The World of Interiors 'A feast for gardeners and interiors lovers.' House & Garden 'Atmosfloric is an absolute feast! Not only totally beguiling and full of practical insights but it opens the doors on some of England and France's most beautiful places.' Sophie Conran 'Sean's approach to colour is utterly refreshing, his words and photos are luxurious and sumptuous. He moves beyond the hackneyed approaches to colour and explores botanical palettes which create distinct atmospheric experiences of romance, energy and reflection. A true inspiration.' Jo Thompson 'All hail Sean Pritchard! His displays are full of wit, stunning colour, singular authenticity - and just damn joyous.' Joely Richardson 'I wish I could do the flowers like Sean does. Like all good artists he makes it seem effortless and easy - but the beauty and spontaneity he conjures is grounded in his intelligent study of how colour theory works - and this new manual for flowers is his testimony to us. If you use it properly it is bound to be transformative.' Ruth Guilding, The Bible of British Taste *** Sean Pritchard's hotly anticipated new book, Atmosfloric: Flower colour in home and garden explores how to grow flowers for colour and bring them indoors for visual impact and atmosphere. The garden allows us to play with colour. Unlike the colours in our interiors, colour in the garden is fleeting and fickle, and with that comes an exciting opportunity to experiment with a changing performance of colour month after month and to bring those colours indoors for constantly changing displays. Colours are considered in three mood-based chapters: Romantic, Energetic and Reflective. For each chapter Sean reveals his favourite flowers to grow (with plant lists and inspirational planting plans) and shows them in a range of inspirational gardens and interiors. As with Outside In the photography is by the author, who has photographed some highly sought-after gardens and interiors in England and France including the iconic Charleston Farmhouse and Kettle's Yard, plus the homes of Richard E Grant, Sam McKnight, Marin Montagut, Butter Wakefield, Isabel and Julian Bannerman and Anthony Watson of Atelier Vime. Sean also takes a personal look at colour theory and explores the relationship that gardeners and gardener-artists have had with colour through history.
