Grená Park Wetlands
Wetland Wonders of Grená: Apium nodiflorum, Colocasia esculenta and Nasturtium officinale
Grená Park, with its springs and streams, is home to a remarkable community of aquatic and wetland plants. Among them, three species stand out for their beauty, ecological role, and cultural value: Apium nodiflorum (Fool’s Watercress), Colocasia esculenta (Taro), and Nasturtium officinale (Watercress).
Frontmatter, or preliminaries, is the first section of a book and is usually the smallest section in terms of the number of pages. Each page is counted, but no folio or page number is expressed or printed, on either display pages or blank pages.

These plants are not only visually striking but also play an essential role in maintaining water quality and providing food and shelter for aquatic insects and amphibians. Together, they embody the richness of Grená’s wetlands and illustrate the interconnection between nature and human culture.
Book design is the art of incorporating the content, style, format, design, and sequence of the various components of a book into a coherent whole. In the words of Jan Tschichold, "methods and rules upon which it is impossible to improve, have been developed over centuries. To produce perfect books, these rules have to be brought back to life and applied."
