When I talked about The Royal Botanical Garden in Kew earlier in the week I wanted to show the eye catching landscapes and attractions. But what I'm sharing today is a lot more exciting to me. One of the most wondrous things to me, ever, is nature. The patterns, the colours, the smells... It's just astounding. I was a bit snap happy while I was there, I wanted to collect inspiration. My home, my life, my art, my future work. Nature is the best and most natural source to work from.
One thing that is really great about the architecture in Kew Gardens is that it is all in line with the patterns of nature, with repetitive, simple patterns used for flooring, building framework, the structure of the glass houses etc. They've taken great care to make sure the structures used for housing the plants compliment the patterns of nature.

This such a lovely entry. I can't believe I missed the chance to go to visit Kew Garden while living there for the past five years. Hopefully I will stop for a visit when we come visit next time.
