]]> Architectural company NUDES recently presented an intriguing new project that looks like ever booklover’s dream. They created an amazing bookcase, titled “Bookworm Pavilion,” which is 120 feet long and 40 feet wide, and is designated for open air.

The bookcase, which is intended to be mobile, is imagined as a  tunnel filled with bookshelves and compartments. These shelves and compartments have a dual purpose, serving as both places to store books and a place where people can sit while reading their book.

“Bookworm Pavilion” is currently installed in Mumbai, but the company intends to use it as a traveling library and move it through regions of Africa and Asia where the population is less literate or don’t have access to books.

The “BookWorm” is an architectural pavilion sited at the CSVMS Museum, Mumbai designed by @nurukarim #nurukarim Kindly supported by @csmvsmumbai @priyasriartgallery @brindamiller The CSVSM Museum has graciously accepted to host this installation of social significance commencing on October 2019. The pavilion focuses on empowerment through education for society at large focusing on curated reading content for children. Idea is to foster a sense of reading at an early age and also encourage the tactile experience of reading books in this day and age of hand held devices and digital content. The pavilion shall be constructed from recycled merino plywood #nurukarim #architecture #pavilionarchitecture #architecture_lovers #next_top_architects #installationart #bookstagram #books #bookworm #museum #architectures #deployablestructure #book #education #mumbai #museum #serpentinegallery #museumofmodernart #artgallerynyc #artgallery #pavilions #librarydesign #architecturedaily #architectureart #architecturestudio
