Flower Art
A comprehensive showcase of Makoto Azuma’s striking flower art and botanical sculpture captured in stunning color photography. Since opening the floral shop JARDINS des FLEURS in Japan nearly two decades ago, Makoto Azuma has been taking commissions from private clients, brands, and corporations from all over the world. He also founded AMKK (Azuma Makoto Kaju Kenkyujo), a group specializing in experimental and innovative floral creations that turn flowers and plants into a medium of self-expression. Juxtaposing the timeless yet transient beauty of flowers with incredibly diverse and striking settings, Azuma has produced work that has adorned Rihanna’s head on the cover of British Vogue and has been exhibited in nearly every corner of the world, from barren deserts and frozen tundras to the depths of the ocean and the edge of space itself. This breathtaking collection of Azuma’s work includes more than sixty projects revealing the artist’s incredible skill and delight in blurring the boundaries between nature and artifice.
Encyclopedia of Flowers
"The Encyclopedia of Flowers is a series of 'definitive stationary observations' in which Makoto Azuma focuses on the market-related changes in the form of species becoming extinct and new ones appearing, as his mission and life work. The flowers featured here are described using their common formal Latin scientific names in a list and index." --vol. 3 book jacket
Flora Magnifica
A tour de force, showcasing flowers in lush images that highlight the riotous colors and exuberant nature of their subject.

The result is a series of dense, luxuriant images, rich in color and texture, in which nature and artifice are skillfully mingled. The boo...

Bulgari. Serpenti. Il potere delle metamorfosi-The power of metamorphosis. Ediz. illustrata
Metamorphosis is a central theme of contemporary creativity, investigated by artists, stylists, designers, philosophers and craftsmen who have crossed the rigid fences of their respective disciplines in search of their changing inclusiveness. With a pioneering spirit, Bulgari also explores them in their different meanings: symbolic, creative and artistic. The protagonist of the narration is the snake, an emblem of regeneration in all cultures and an icon of the goldsmith mastery of the Rome maison from the 1940s to today.0In symbolic metamorphoses, the reptile embodies the archetype of transformation and renewal that refers to the dualism of life, while in the creative ones its seductive spe...

Material Revolution
Since it is now clear that in the future many raw materials will only be available to us in limited quantities, scientists have for some time been conducting intensive research into possible alternatives. Sustainability is the order of the day and the magic word for a better future in politics and industry. Moreover, environmental consciousness and a penchant for thinking in terms of material cycles have caught on with consumers: the use of environmentally compatible materials and production methods is desired, even taken for granted by the client. Designers and architects thus have a special role and responsibility. For they are the ones who decide what materials will be used on their proje...
