Little Free Library

Nolita, NYC, 2013!!Take a book and return a book in Nolita's Little Free Library.The Architectural League of New York partnered with Pen World Voices Festival to bring Little Free Library to New York City. Ten designers were chosen to create one Little Free Library each in Downtown Manhattan. Stereotank was selected to design a Little Free Library at St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral School in Nolita. The design consisted in creating an 'inhabitable' Little Free Library, where users could immerse themselves and take the time to browse through books and borrow or exchange them. The structure is built out of an upside down plastic tank and a wooden frame. Perforations around the tank allow visitors to peek inside and preview the interior, which invites them to duck under and discover the book collection while still having a connection with the exterior.Special Thanks to:The Architectural LeaguePen World VoicesThe Brooklyn CottageSt. Patrick's Old Cathedral SchoolThe They Co.For more Information visit:
