Illustrator Thibaud Herem is nurturing a homegrown arboretum in his flat in East London. With over 30 species of trees ranging from oak to Japanese maple to giant redwood, this is a documentation of his obsession as well as a visual exploration of the beautiful shapes and forms found in nature.

Within a personal narrative, this gorgeous little book includes fascinating information about the trees, the process of planting and cultivating them, and musings on society's relationship to the architecture of nature and the role and place of plants in our homes and lives. Gorgeously illustrated and presented, this is a lovely, thoughtful gift book for gardeners, hobbyists and lovers of beautiful drawings.
