Inserted in the Herzog & de Meuron
completed art museum, Tai Kwun Contemporary, the new Artist Books Library
shares an impeccable lookout to the mid-levels, one of the most significant and
acclaimed destinations in Hong Kong.
To preserve this sensational viewpoint and ensure maximum daylight for reading, the Vitrine Shelf is designed to be seemingly and elegantly invisible.
Developed from a modular system, the shelves can easily be stacked and hence grow with the library. Interchangeability is maximized allowing the Vitrine Shelves to operate as a bench, display or table.
