In Praise of Flowers

Designed by : Tan Wei Jing

Under the Supervision of Associate Professor Christophe Gaubert.

Flowers may seem like a simple and light topic. However, looking past their beauty, flowers come from multiple complex dimensions­, such as, Historical Stories, Symbolism, Archetypes and Needs of a Flower. In Praise of Flowers is a series of vessels dedicated to 9 different flowers, inspired by their individual various dimensions — Hydrangea, Orchid, Daffodil, Baby’s Breath, Lavender, Rose, Lily, Peony and Tulip.

Each chapter in In Praise of Flowers opens with a short background story of the flower, which is then accompanied by images of these flowers, along with their respective vessels, and a poem for you to remember.
