About the Book

There are few things in this world as calming, refreshing, and beautiful as a flower. This truth has long been recognized in Japan, where Ikenaba--the ancient art of flower arranging--has been used for centuries to bring harmony to living spaces. Ikebana is a rewarding, insightful, and relaxing practice, and it can totally transform a domestic space--but, as a fine art, it can also be very challenging. Choosing the right arrangement for the right location to create the perfect fusion of domestic and natural beauty is no easy task but, thankfully, Elaine Jo, Executive Master of the Ichiyo School of Ikebana, is here to guide you. In At Home With Ikebana, learn: -The secrets and philosophies of Ikebana.-Where to display Ikebana, and which arrangements suit which locations.-How to effectively (and beautifully!) combine different flowers to achieve different moods, effects, and feelings.In this light, inspirational, and informative book, Jo introduces the reader to the rich world of Ikebana. As much a treatise on the importance of the home environment as it is a perfect companion for the serious student, At Home With Ikenaba is a wonderful read for artist and householder alike.
