"The details are not the details. They make the design. " Charles Eames

 

Walking through Launceston and I stumbled across this park. Just outside the conservatory there was this beautiful garden with a jumble of flowers, appearing as if in a 'wild jumble'. Howver, on closer inspection, they were planted in rows of colour and type. 

On even closer inspection, they were a detailed, symetrical pattern. Almost hard to believe they were a flower created naturally.

I guess the lesson is sometimes you have to look closer to really see what's going on.

    I did not know Charles Eames. The chosen quotes is very clever. I think I'll use the subject for the games of quotes.
    It's so true! The images are so beautiful!
    Happy WW and a fine week! 😘❤️

      The chairs are $$ and a big deal to the design crowd...

    I think it's because of those pompom dahlias that I'm not really into these flowers. They always seem artificial in some way. But there are many different dahlias and there are enough of them that I like.
    Kind regards - Elke

    Very pretty - and I think creation is a miracle we forget to appreciate.....then something strikes us anew like this.

    You bet nature makes the best mandalas and you found an example of perfection. Nature IS all about symmetry and patterns...we just need to take a closer look.....It is always a pleasure to see you share a post from your blog on Wednesday’s Words and Pics Link Up. I hope you continue to do so! Take care, Denyse.
