Shelved Words
Prototype produced in solid oak and painted plywood, 125cm x 3.2cm x 4cm

A shelf designed to display books face out, allowing the reader to create new 'texts' from his books through combinations of their titles.
Inspired by the current series of covers designed by Pentagram for Faber and Faber's poetry series.
