Opera popup bookstore

We designed a popup bookstore for the Warsaw National Opera foyer. It is almost ready now. It should start its operations in the Opera’s entry foyer starting this September i.e. in a matter of days.

At the beginning the plans were more ambitious and we aimed for a mobile, opening concept. Together with Julia I developed a veneered proposal that everybody instantly fell in love with. In the end however it ended up being a simple piece of brass-clad furniture.

It is always fun to see your drawings executed. Especially in the Warsaw Opera. Check out the animated tour. The real thing may yet see the light of day.
