Designed Readers Bookstore
This bookstore is set in the San Lorenzo neighborhood in Rome, Italy and was designed during my time abroad in Fall 2013.
Inspired by converging new and older architecture, the design is focused upon the central stair causing caos in the rhythm. This bookstore is focused on selling design related books for young professionals and those interested in the fields of design. The store is four levels and customers enter to a small cafe on the main floor with magazines and light reading areas, the second and third floors are the main retail spaces and reading areas, then on the fourth and final floor there is a lecture hall for lectures with visiting designers for the Romans to enjoy.
