This book surveys over 4000 years of apiary design, and features the functional, the ornamental, the dull, and the sublime - an open ended visual investigation into symbiosis, labour, agriculture, architecture, and bees.

Part of a wider project ‘Apian’, this book features 375 images, a text by the creators, an extensive glossary and a detailed list of sources.
