The task to create a temporary exhibition space for over 500 books in 90 m2 was solved with a modular system based on a standard shelving system, which is traditionally used in a vertical position for book storage. By order conversion into a horizontal table, the system becomes a presentation space. This provides the ability to open the book directly and to browse through it.

The linear lines of tables and their accessibility from both sides provokes communication among the visitors. The use of standard components is also a very cost effective and simple way to create a temporary structure.
