[Yesuricover] Kin Folk Garden
Description
Book Introduction
A time when the green solace of nature permeates life.
The expression of the garden that Kin Folk encountered
Limited edition Spring 2022 in Berry Perry color!
A garden essay from [Kinfolk], a lifestyle magazine that promotes a simple and modest life.
This book contains methods for bringing the joy of nature into your life.
John Burns, editor-in-chief of [Kinfolk], and the Kinfolk team traveled to 23 cities in 14 countries, visiting gardens around the world and meeting people who live at their own pace, as simply and elegantly as the plants they grow.
Designers, florists, painters, and other gardeners all share one common story.
“Caring for plants is the best way to learn how to care for yourself.”
From garden designers who create their own nature escapes on the rooftops of cramped Parisian apartments, to New York crafters who study the structure of petals and create paper flowers, to people who harvest their own vegetables on a Copenhagen community farm.
We hear the most stories from silent plants, and the daily lives of those who, like plants, remain as they are and do not try to change anything, have a special resonance.
On days when you feel complicated, open this book.
You will feel as if you have just taken a short stroll in the garden of a friend who is always by your side with affection, and you will suddenly feel at ease.
The cover of "Kinfolk Garden," featuring delicate plant illustrations in Berry Peri, the light violet hue chosen by Pantone as the color of the year, will brighten our hearts with the quiet yet delicate touch of plants, especially in these times when comfort is needed more than ever.

Into the book
We take care of nature, and nature takes care of us.
--- First sentence
“At the end of the fairy tale, it says, ‘They lived happily ever after.’
“For me, this is that moment,” says Pem Gutturk.
Pem Gutzulturk left the public relations firm he founded and trained to become a botanist.
Now he busily tends his garden in his quiet greenhouse on the outskirts of Türkiye.
He realizes that this care is actually taking care of himself.
--- p.16
As evening approaches, the two light a fire on the grill and begin cooking.
We make fragrant pasta with basil grown right in our garden and pair it with quality Argentinean wine.
In this house, where the traces of time are clearly felt, cacti grew taller than people.
The two seemed to grow old together with the plants.
Is there anything they would like to change? “I don’t want to change anything,” says Sticcoti.
“It’s fine as it is now.”
--- p.102
The garden that is more filled with his sincerity than any other is the secret garden he created on the roof of his Parisian apartment.
Nestled somewhere in the 11th arrondissement of central Paris, this rooftop garden is an oasis of climbing roses, lush purple clematis, and towering fruit trees.
If there were no distant car horns, if there were no roof panels looking down, it would feel like you were in the countryside.
“I wanted to create a natural escape in the city,” he explains.
“Plants bring birds and wind here.
“I often leave myself here.”
--- p.110
“We love tulips.
I like the simplicity of this flower.
“Tulips add elegance to any space,” says Milberry.
“Tulips get better and better with time.
Sometimes things look most beautiful when they are withered.
British artist David Hockney also frequently used tulips as a motif.
“If it’s a flower that inspired him, it can inspire us too.”
--- p.138
Saito emphasizes that this is a traditional oriental gardening technique called ‘chakye’.
Borrowing a distant landscape means using it as part of a garden.
When you pass through the sliding door leading to the terrace, you will come across a courtyard.
Being here, you can understand why Saito described his home as "a beautiful place with the wind."
“When the wind blows, you can hear the soft sound of leaves rustling on the ground.
“You almost completely forget about the noise of the city.”
--- p.176
A surprising 600-square-foot farm sits atop the roof of an old car auction building in Copenhagen.
The farm grows over 100 species of plants, from herbs to fruits, root vegetables and garlic bulbs.
“The idea of growing food in the city was so appealing,” says ØsterGro, Denmark’s first communal farm, inspired by the communal rooftop gardens in Brooklyn and Seattle and the community spirit they fostered.
Members of Ostergro pay about $270 twice a year and receive freshly grown vegetables every week.
--- p.254
Daffodils symbolize 'new beginnings'.
Why not give a bouquet of daffodils to a friend who has just moved in or someone who is just becoming a parent?
If you have a friend who is changing jobs, send them some primroses.
The bright petals and unbending stems of the primrose express 'confidence'.
If you have a friend who is discouraged in business, send him some irises.
It will give you 'courage'.
Or you can send a cactus.
Because no plant expresses 'resilience' as well as a cactus.
Whether you want to convey a mysterious nuance or the unmistakable passion of a red rose, let the symbolism of flowers get your message across.
The other person will intuitively sense your feelings.

Publisher's Review
Time to bring the joy of nature into your life
Is it because I can't go out as often or meet as many people as I used to?
The number of people who enjoy designing spaces with plants and discovering the joy of gardening by growing basil or carrots themselves is rapidly increasing.
These days, with more time spent at home and the constant need to wear a mask, even our hearts feel suffocated.
A book has been published for all of us.
We invite you to the open garden of 『Kinfolk Garden』, a book that contains various ways to bring the joy of nature into your life.
Filled with sensual garden photographs and intimate stories, "Kinfolk Garden" is a book that becomes more lovable the longer you look at it.
The setting of this book is a garden, and the main characters are the people who take care of it every day.
John Burns, editor-in-chief of Kinfolk, and the Kinfolk team traveled to 23 cities in 14 countries around the world, including Copenhagen, Denmark; Mallorca, Spain; Paris, France; and Portland, USA, visiting gardens steeped in personal taste and history, and meeting 30 painters, designers, gardeners, and florists who care for them and explore ways to live in harmony with plants.
A warm and unique composition worthy of the 'Kinfolk Garden'
The first chapter of the book, "Care," tells the story of people designing gardens to suit their own space and tastes, and learning how to care for themselves while caring for plants.
Let's meet Pem, a horticulturalist who left the hectic city life to live in a small Turkish village, tending her garden, and Alejandro, an architect from Buenos Aires who spends his days in an old house that resembles him, 'not wanting to change anything.'
The second chapter, which deals with the theme of 'Creativity', tells the stories of people who understand the beauty of plants and engage in creative activities inspired by the scenery outside their windows.
Meet Sourab, a New York-based craftsman who creates paper flowers while studying the poetic gestures of plants, and Lisa and Leo, interior designers who design spaces inspired by the simple and elegant tulips.
In the third chapter, 'Community,' you can meet stories of people who shared the fruits of their care and fostered new relationships.
Here are heartwarming stories of people connecting through plants, including the story of Copenhageners harvesting organic vegetables directly from a community farm, and the story of an activist who solved the food shortage for residents by planting tomato and fruit trees in public flower beds in an area where fresh vegetables were difficult to obtain.
It also introduces a space of quiet beauty where people and nature coexist peacefully.
Let's also visit Skogskrkogården in Stockholm, which is considered one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the world.
If you are looking for beauty that will protect and renew your daily life,
This book is full of Kin Folk-style emotional tips, such as how to cook with flowers, how to present plants as design objects, and how to use the meaning contained in the language of flowers, as well as practical information, such as how to recycle flowers from bouquets, and how to care for vegetables that are good to grow at home.
If you're looking for beauty to sustain your daily life, this book will provide inspiration and guidance.
By the time you close the book, you might start to have fun thinking about creating your own little flower garden.
Henry David Thoreau, an essayist who loved nature deeply, wrote:
“There comes a time when all worries and hardships calmly subside in the power of nature.” We too are well aware of the solace that nature provides.
But if you can't just run off to the woods like Thoreau, why not put a small flowerpot in a corner of your room and open this book?
Just by caring for plants, you will feel a sense of camaraderie that is conveyed silently, and you will suddenly feel a sense of peace.
The noise of the city fades away, replaced by the gentle rustling of leaves on the ground in the wind.
