What is a codex? A codex is a bound stack of panels or boards made of wood, wax, papyrus or parchment.

The earlier high cultures in Egypt and Greece used such boards for written or pictorial documentation. In this way, knowledge and information were transmitted and preserved. With the invention of printing and the industrial manufacture of paper, the codex became a marginal phenomenon in the world of printed media. The CODEX Wallbooks brings the idea back. It’s digitally printed, it has brilliant colors, it’s moisture-resistant, the surface is durable and can be even wiped off if necessary. The CODEX Wallbooks are manufactured in workshops in Freiburg, Germany. The special book binding technique is made by hand. The binding is part of a design feature that has been pending patent protection.
