Aquarium books that have appeared in recent years, have in general been more beautiful and better equipped than ever before. The factual contents have a quality unforeseen. Fishes, invertebrates and plants are identified with scientific accuracy. Well-educated and serious professionals describe the technical equipments, foods and maintenance routines with dedication and seriousness. The faith of the aquarium animals has never been in better hands. The likeliness to achieve success, as an aquarium keeper, is greater today than ever before.
Still, to a large extent, modern aquarium books have lost track of one of the major considerations people have when contemplating setting up an aquarium in the first place. Surely, quite a few new aquarists have chosen their hobby foremost in order to study the aquatic world really up-close, but in a modern home, more and more people are concerned about what the aquarium can do to the interior of their own home.
In Svein A. Fosså and Alf Jacob Nilsen`s newest book project "The Most Beautiful Aquariums of the World" (TECTUM Publishers, Belgium) the sole focus is, for the first time in any modern aquarium book, on what an aquarium can do to your home. How a well-designed aquarium can become a focal point in even the most fashionable of living rooms. The TECTUM team selected and photographed the top-of-the-top aquariums from amongst several of the most discriminating aquarium owners in the world.
"The Most Beautiful Aquariums of the World" is not your average aquarium book. It is a book about the use of aquariums as decorative elements and focal points in room furnishing. This book focuses at architecture, decoration, furniture, as well as aquariums and living aquatic organisms. Through sequences of beautiful photography and short pieces of texts, it tells the story of how a small segment of nature, in the form of life in a glass encased box, can be a part of a beautiful room interior. 176 pages, hardcover.
