The Art of Design
For years, people have asked how I design —
how atmospheres are born, how flow appears, how beauty becomes inevitable.
This book offers only a glimpse.
A look behind the scenes at the quiet decisions, awareness,
and inner structure that shape every experience I create.
It reveals that structure —
quietly, precisely, elegantly.
It is written for those who design beyond aesthetics —
for those who design resonance.
• Decades of global creative insight distilled into one source of inspiration.
• The unseen architecture behind beauty.
• Insights for planners, designers, architects, and cultural creatives.
• Tools, principles, and lived experience brought together in one volume.
The Art of Design
FORWORD by Colin Cowie
“This book shows plenty of flowers, of course, yet it’s not really a book about flowers… It is a book about the intelligence that sits behind beauty… The book is extraordinary, and it stands apart from everything else in floral design. As does Tomas himself.”
— Colin Cowie , CEO Colin Cowie Lifestyle I F.O.O.D. INC.

THE STORY
“Why This Book Exists”
1. The Mental Universe
“Design is not decoration — it is translation.”
2. The State of Flow
“Fall in love with the process, and beauty will follow.”
3. The Art of Imagination
“If you obey all the rules, you miss all the magic.”
4. The Art of Unlearning
“The secret ingredient is always intention.”
5. The Art of Structure
“Beauty is born where structure and imagination meet.”
6. The Emotional Blueprint
“We don’t design for the eye — we design for the heart that remembers.”
7. Legacy & the Invisible Thread
“Moments pass, but meaning remains.”
This book is the culmination of twenty-five years shaping atmospheres, designing meaning, and teaching creators across the world.
It distills the unseen structures behind beauty — the mental universe, flow, imagination, authenticity, structure, emotion and legacy.
It is not a manual. It is a mirror.

TESTIMONIALS
“Voices of the Industry”
THE JOURNEY
The journey of The Art of Design unfolds in two acts ,
a first spark in Istanbul and its full revelation in London.
Two cities. Two moments. One awakening.
ISTANBUL — WHERE THE JOURNEY BEGAN
Table Design Exhibition · December 2025 In collaboration with Meltem Tepeler of KM Events
It began where relationships and ideas meet.
At the Table Design Exhibition in Istanbul, The Art of Design was first introduced during a panel on Sustainable Success Through Connection.
A moment that shaped a core belief:
that beauty gains meaning through collaboration.
Two cities. Two moments. One awakening.
LONDON — “THE REVEAL”
The Chancery Rosewood · April 12, 2026 · RSVP Symposium
In collaboration with RSVP/La Fete and International Event Planner Nadia Duran
In collaboration with RSVP / La Fête and international event planner Nadia Duran, the Signature Edition of The Art of Design was unveiled to an international audience of planners, creators, and visionaries—immersed within Tomas’s floral scenography.
“Why did I choose Tomas to partner with for RSVP’s Awards Gala and the launch of his book The Art of Design? A better question is: ‘Is Tomas the most talented floral designer in the world?’ Well, he’s definitely in the top one.”
— James Lord, Founder & CEO, RSVP
This was more than a book launch.
It was a moment where philosophy became experience. Where structure met imagination, and beauty revealed its meaning.
A crescendo. A revelation.
A night that will be remembered.
By invitation only.
What unfolded on April 12 was not fully announced in advance.
It revealed itself in layers—intentionally, precisely—throughout the evening.
