As she succeeded, she was able to study them in a more extended and intimate way than had been possible before, discovering for example how they reproduced. Her spaces have the feeling that they have evolved over time. This book sends me into create daydreams that can last for hours. Someone said this is a book more about the designer herself than her work, but why not? A designer reflects her mind within her lifestyle and her background. AwesomeThank You from Houston, Texas!. Kelly has an incredible talent for drawing from a number of varied styles to create a space that looks as though it has been lived in, buying the best of the best and acknowledging high-brow trends, for decades. I also cringe when I see the picture of her sitting with asian antiques dealers while wearing a rice farmer hat. She has clearly been a student of everything visual that she could get her hands on. Her style is not as much a revival as an homage. Recommended for anyone who has an interest in Mexican art.. To seeIn the winter of 1847, the cloisters of Westminster Abbey enjoyed a sudden growth in popularity, though the visitors who streamed in were not of the usual kind. They were naturalists, come to see the very first marine aquarium in England, a large collection of madrepores and sea sponges kept in glass cases in the drawing-room of Ashburnham House. Married to a clergyman, she found herself working in a field which cut right through to the heart of the prevailing conflict about the origins and development of life on the planet.. Anna's invention of the aquarium coincided with a major philosophical turning point in history. The Abbey aquarium was established not by the Revered Lord John Thynne, the Sub-Dean of the Abbey, but by his extraordinary wife Anna, a great beauty and mother of 10 children, who by a process of serendipity, discovered how to keep and breed her pet sea creatures in glass tanks in central London
