Bookshop
London
Yellow floor-to-ceiling bookcases and the strategically placed mirrors create a sense of books stretching into infinity. On the shelves of this bookshop the books aren’t organised into the usual sections like “detective novels” or “poetry”. They’re filed using a system that might seem random at first, but that is specifically designed to help customers find new books and promote interdisciplinary thinking. To make sure customers immerse themselves in this literary world, mobile phones are banned and there are comfortable reading corners.
