Dal 1981, anno della sua prima pubblicazione con Franco Maria Ricci, il Codex Seraphinianus, enciclopedia visiva di un mondo sconosciuto scritta in una lingua sconosciuta, è diventato un oggetto di culto in tutto il mondo e ha affascinato una generazione di artisti, lettori e critici generando lunghi dibattiti sui suoi significati e sulla sua origine. Il libro, celebrato come uno dei più bei libri d'artista contemporanei, ha creato derivazioni e contaminazioni in tutti i media, dalla rete, alla musica e al cinema. Tra gli estimatori ci sono stati Roland Barthes - che lo lesse in anteprima, quando ancora non era stato pubblicato - e Italo Calvino che lo definì "L'enciclopedia di un visionario". Dal 1981 il Codex ha venduto circa 70mila copie in tutto il mondo.

"This visual encyclopedia of an unknown world written in an unknown language has fueled much debate over its meaning. Written for the information age and addressing the import of coding and decoding in genetics, literary criticism, and computer science, the Codex confused, fascinated, and enchanted a generation. While its message may be unclear, its appeal is obvious: it is a most exquisite artifact. Blurring the distinction between art book and art object, this anniversary edition-redesigned by the author and featuring new illustrations-presents this unique work in a new, unparalleled light. With the advent of new media and forms of communication and continuous streams of information, the Codex is now more relevant and timelier than ever. A special limited and numbered deluxe edition that includes a signed print was also available" the publisher.

He is best known for creating the Codex Seraphinianus, an illustrated encyclopedia of imaginary things in what is believed to be a constructed language. In a talk at the Oxford University Society of Bibliophiles held on 11 May 2009, Serafini stated that there is no meaning hidden behind the script of the Codex, which is asemic; that his own experience in writing it was closely similar to automatic writing; and that what he wanted his alphabet to convey to the reader is the sensation that children feel in front of books they cannot yet understand.** Edition of 600 copies, 300 in Italian and 300 in English.
