Abstract: We introduce bimonads in a 2-category $K$ and define biwreaths as bimonads in the 2-category $$ of bimonads, in the analogous fashion as Lack and Street defined wreaths. A biwreath is then a system containing a wreath, a cowreath and their mixed versions, but also a 2-cell $lambda$ in $$ governing the compatibility of the monad and the comonad structure of the biwreath. We deduce that the monad laws encode 2-(co)cycles and the comonad laws so called 3-(co)cycles, while the 2-cell conditions of the (co)monad structure 2-cells of the biwreath encode (co)actions twisted by these 2- and 3-(co)cycles. The compatibilities of $lambda$ deliver concrete expressions of the latter structure 2-cells. We concentrate on the examples of biwreaths in the 2-category induced by a braided monoidal category $C$ and take for the distributive laws in a biwreath the braidings of the different categories of Yetter-Drinfel'd modules in $C$. We prove that the before-mentioned properties of a biwreath specified to the latter setting recover on the level of $C$ different algebraic constructions known in the category ${}_{R}M$ of modules over a commutative ring $R$, such as Radford biproduct, Sweedler's crossed product algebra, comodule algebras over a quasi-bialgebra and the Drinfel'd twist. In this way we obtain that the known examples of (mixed) wreaths coming from ${}_{R}M$ are not merely examples, rather they are consequences of the structure of a biwreath, and that the form of their structure morphisms originates in the laws inside of a biwreath. Choosing different distributive laws and different 2-cells $lambda$ in a biwreath, leads to different and possibly new algebraic constructions.
