Explorations of the Seed Vault


Book Description

In this colouring book you get to take a closer look at some of the seeds found in the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. The Seed Vault is located underground in the arctic permafrost on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen. This is the world's largest secure seed storage facility and currently holds seeds from 5.499 species of crop plants. This collection is an important global collaboration for preserving the biodiversity and resilience of crops for the future. In this colouring book we look at a small, but significant, selection of these - looking at seeds from both the most common species in the Seed Vault, and some of the least common ones. This book is a part of an experimental project about interpreting and communicating data from the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. The project is developed by Einar Sneve Martinussen and Jørn Knutsen from the Oslo School of Architecture and Design, and the design studio Voy.
