Shopfront at night

London, United Kingdom

Librería

The small bookshop sits beside a co-working space in the east of the city. It was designed by a Spanish practice together with an artist.

Recycled wood and mirrors are the main materials. Shelves of reused timber line the walls and wind through the room, and mirrors set among them multiply the books and stretch the narrow space into what feels like an endless library.

The shop is arranged by themes rather than genres, encouraging visitors to browse and discover, and its warm yellow light draws people in from the street.
