Leaves, fruits, and even butterflies come together to form unexpectedly beautiful arrangements inKristen Meyers art.
The Connecticut-based prop stylist and designer specializes ingeometric flat layscontaining dozens of different objects.
They are laid out in evenly spaced patterns until they form stunning designs that look computer-made.
The choice of materials in Meyer’s flat lays varies as much as the final shape.
Her work includes everything from pencils and sticky notes to scraps of trash.
However, the way she makes them appealing is always the same.
After collecting the chosen materials, she modifies them as necessary so she can fit them into planned patterns.
This might require cutting items with scissors or knives as well as carefully tearing the edges.
For instance, cuts of watermelon are carved into circles and half-circles and placed accordingly on a pastel-colored background.
Many of Meyer’s most recognizable flat lays have a clear geometric shape like squares and circles.
Some of her newer pieces, however, possess a more expressive form.
Leaves are carefully added to enhance the effect.
