The integrated Swatch timepiece ticks on while the Wallbook lets us take pause and reflect on this year’s achievements, reliving these special moments in the mountains: Celebrating the past, living in the present, and determining the future.

CODEX A to Z: Unforgettable Do you remember where you were the last time you viewed a breathtaking photograph on your social media feed? Probably not. Totally forgettable. But ask someone about their experience with a Codex wallbook and you will get a different answer. That’s the difference between digital and physical, between superficial and meaningful, between forgettable and unforgettable. Wallbooks are not just photos, but stories and experiences. . Experiences that you touch, feel, and share. Experiences that you will remember, and that others will remember too. Stop creating content and start making experiences. Make your social space into an exhibit. Turn your hallway into a gallery. Change your waiting room into an experience room. Your images form your story. Your story forms your experience. Your experience forms your brand. Arrange your images, tell your story, craft your experience build your brand. Make it unforgettable. #unforgettable #photography #wallbook #branding #experiences

CODEX A to Z: Tactile Stop scrolling and start experiencing. Wallbooks are not just visual, but also tactlie, sensory, and organic. Flip through the pages, foward or backward, experience the textures pages and deep, printed inks. Feel the small breath of cool air as the precision-cut pages of the handcrafted book fall ever so lightly into the frame after every turn. But with tactility comes the theme of durablility and longevity, and here we also have you covered. The paper is acid-free and reflects the light in a natural and balanced way. The archival ink has rich blacks and deep colours that faithfully reproduce the colors and tones of your original images. The binding is hand-sewn and preserves the integrity of the book over time. The frames are solid, durable, and easy to clean, while allowing you to open and close the books without taking them out of the display. Tactility is at the core of our mission. It is a clebration of the art and craft of printing and binding, the beauty and diversity of paper and ink, and the joy and satisfaction of browsing and interacting with photos. It is a way of creating a physical and emotional connection with your story, and with your audience, and something we feel is ingerantly lost in the digital age. If you want a touch, get in touch. We can send you samples, invite you to visit our studio, or arrange a visit to your space. #tactility #photography #wallbook #experience

CODEX A to Z: Scenes Scenes are an inherent part of a photo, a story, or a space. A scene is a way of capturing and conveying a moment, a mood, or a message. A scene can also be a way of creating and experiencing an atmosphere, a theme, or a story. Places, times, or events, and the people, objects, or actions can all be part of a scene within a photograph, or when you think about it, in the context in which a photograph is displayed. In the digital realm, you have no control over the scene in which a photo is experienced. On a bus, walking down the street, or laying in bed doom - scrolling at 3:00 am. Your works can be interpreted in any context, in any scene. With our CODEX wallbooks, you set the stage. You create the scene. A quiet corner or a busy hallway? A cool modern gallery with spotlights, or a soft warm glow of a wooden table next to a fireplace? You set the mood, the context, and the tone by setting your scene. That is how you switch from producing content to providing an experience. Where would you like to stage a CODEX wallbook? How would you set your scene? Feel free to post an image of one of your favorite spaces in the comments. #scenes #photography #wallbook #contentmarketing #experiencemarketing

CODEX A to Z: Reflection Reflection can be the act of looking back on our memories, our experiences, our stories, and our emotions. It can help us understand ourselves better, appreciate our past, and learn from our mistakes. Reflection can also help us share our stories with others, and inspire them to reflect on their own. Wallbooks are a perfect medium for reflection, because they combine photography and print. Together, they create a powerful and personal experience that invites viewers to reflect on your story and connect to their own story. Reflection is also unique to printed photographs. Instead of light being projected through a smartphone screen or computer monitor, light from the environment reflects off the paper, the ink to form the images on our retinas. The light in the environment, the context, and the frame can change the appearance and the mood of a CODEX wallbook. You can experiment with the reflection and contrast of your CODEX wallbooks by changing the lighting and location of CODEX wallbooks within your space. We can help with that too. Do you have any photos that incorporate the theme of reflection, either literal or metaphorical? Feel free to post it in the comments, or contact us if you want to incorporate it into a Codex wallbook. #reflection #photography #wallbook #storytelling
