Publisher Note

The word beech and the word book share an etymological root in old Germanic, as the beech bark was likely used as early writing material, linking the tree historically to symbols of knowledge, learning and wisdom. In this beech book, a single beech tree is documented across a year, where the changes of the seasons are captured in its leaves, branches, flowers and seeds. (text by the authors)

This book was made for The Age of Wood, an exhibition curated and conceptualised by Christian+Jade with Karimoku Research and held in their new facility in Tokyo, Japan. Short text by Christian Hammer Juhl.
