Summary:
From the typical to the exclusive, an “A to Z” about honey, with accurate contents and a vivid layout, rich in practical suggestions and literary and historical quotations. 192 pages in which one can discover features and peculiarities of honey, with many recipes, curiosities and tasting ideas. A book dedicated to nomadic apiculture to approach honey’s passion and tradition from this particular point of view. Synonymous of concepts like “freedom” and “non-conformism”, “nomadism” always found deep roots in man’s history: from this starting point, “nomadic apiculture” expresses the aim of protecting and safeguarding honeys that come from rare blooms, sometimes difficult to reap, too. In a wider sense, it symbolizes the opportunity of drawing in a responsible way from nature’s resources.

Plus de quinze projets de paysage illustrés de photographies en couleur et de plans, documentés et commentés en détail par leurs architectes respectifs, offrent une mise à jour des connaissances de cette branche du design, utile au professionnel ou à l'étudiant impliqué dans la gestion du paysage.
