Zeeland, The Netherlands –- Lockdown has proved frustrating for us all, and we have missed the ritual of browsing a miscellany of books at book fairs and bookshops. As a result, we decided to try to replicate this experience with a fully clickable catalogue.
We have presented three shelves of books, and a “picture wall” with no titles or descriptions in the catalogue. Instead, a prospective buyer will need to hover over a book on the shelf — to see what it is — and click through if they wish to read more about it. Far closer to the physical sensation of popping into our book room and selecting a book yourself.
