Book Synopsis Gerhard Dreyer's Wild Flowers by : Gerhard Dreyer
Download or read book Gerhard Dreyer's Wild Flowers written by Gerhard Dreyer and published by Sunbird Pub.. This book was released on 2003 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a tribute to the late Gerhard Dreyer who spent years photographing the wild flowers of South Africa and these are some of his best images selected from several thousand. This is a tribute not only to Gerhard's photography but also the amazing floral abundance and diversity of South Africa which will appeal to both locals and overseas tourists -- there is a short introduction by Ernst van Jaarsveld, an expert on flowers, based at the Kirstenbosh Botanical Gardens, with extended captions on each flower. South Africa has the highest biodiversity for a temperate region, and world-wide is second only to Brazil and Indonesia, both tropical countries. The Fynbos biome alone has more plant species than the whole of Europe -- so a publication of this scope can only hope to give a representation of the unbelievable variety available, but anyone who has a fondness for flowers will want this book.

Book Synopsis Wild South Africa by : Alan Mountain
Download or read book Wild South Africa written by Alan Mountain and published by MIT Press (MA). This book was released on 1998 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: with photographs by Lex Hes South Africa is a land of hauntingly beautiful and diverse landscapes. Its wild places encompass rugged mountain ranges, sweeping sand beaches, indigenous coastal forest, and sun-blistered arid plains, with each environment supporting its own distinctive plant and animal life. The beauty and diversity of South Africa's unspoiled and untamed places are celebrated in this latest addition to the Wild Places of the World series. South Africa's topography is characterized by a great interior plateau fringed on three sides by an irregular chain of mountains and hills that descend to a narrow coastal strip. The chapters focus on each ecological region in turn, from the Maputaland, a wetland area of great natural diversity, to the mountains of the Cape and Natal, the desert lands of the Karoo and the Kalahari, the coastal zone, the highveld grasslands, and the bushveld. The main focus is on wilderness areas and national parks, each chosen for its wild, unspoiled character, and the book emphasizes the need to preserve the country's natural heritage in a time of increasing demands for human development. Wild South Africacontains 350 stunning full-color photographs that illustrate all aspects of Nature's cycles in each region. The book features the uniqueness of each region's fauna, flora, and geography, from tiny insects, birds, and larger mammals to fruits, flowers, and sweeping landscapes.

Book Synopsis Pattern Design by : Elizabeth Wilhide
Download or read book Pattern Design written by Elizabeth Wilhide and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, patterns have come in countless permutations of motif, colour-way and scale. Yet what all have in common is the regularity of repetition, that insistent rhythm that animates a flat surface with a sense of movement and vitality and gives it depth. Evident in the arrangement of petals on a flower head, the branching growth of stems and vines, the spirals of a seashell - pattern is inherent in the natural world that surrounds us. Powerful and transformative, pattern has an irrepressible joie de vivre. With more than 1,500 illustrations of patterns from all ages and cultures, Pattern Design is a visual feast. This comprehensive compendium is arranged thematically according to type, with chapters on Flora, Fauna, Pictorial, Geometric and Abstract designs. These broad categories are supplemented by in-depth features highlighting the work of key designers from the rich history of pattern-making - such as William Morris, Sonia Delaunay, Charles and Ray Eames, Lucienne Day and Orla Kiely - along with sections detailing the characteristic motifs of key period styles from Baroque to Art Deco.
