Things and stuff...

Design firm, Luzinterruptus, created this public installation called Personal Reading in Public Sites, briefly transforming some of the less-desirable sections of Madrid into open-air reading rooms.  At each stop they installed a lamp from which a crime or detective novel hung by string. Luzinterrupts’ stated objective was to transform the neglected public spaces “into more comfortable, cosy places in which you could spend some time at leisure.”  I don’t know about that, but it certainly makes for some cool photos.  Via, Dezeen.
