About the original library ↗

Every room is open, even while its shelves are empty. Only books I’ve read will fill them.

An imaginary building with twenty libraries upstairs. Each is a small, walkable interpretation of the original architecture. The ground floor takes its cues from the Morgan Library. The books come from my reading log.
