summer garden flatlay/knolling

In 1987, in the quiet after-hours at Frank Gehry’s furniture shop, as a janitor named Andrew Kromelow cleared up, he would gather stray tools and experiment with arranging them in a grid-like pattern.

 

He called the practice “knolling,” after the hard angles of Knoll furniture, a popular brand that Gehry was designing for at the time.

 

Today, knolling more often refers to the art of spacing out objects on a flat surface at tidy angles to one another and photographing the arrangement from above.

 

In our summer garden: wisteria, aquilegia, wisteria leaves, violas, a sprig of aquilegia foliage and (centre) some small rockery flowers - colours of purple, green, pink and a little white.

 

HSS!

 

Happy Sunday and thank you for visiting my photostream!
