Inorganic Flora by botanist/designer Macoto Murayama

Highly detailed blueprints of various flowers that have been digitally rendered from meticulously studied specimens that have been dissected by hand. 

Maybe it’s a daydream for our scientists, seeing plants so cleanly dissected, labeled, and color-coded. Of course, plant science is seldom a white room undertaking; just ask our scientists in the field!

Still, I wouldn’t mind these on my wall. —MN
