Description
London Being in the Library explores the impact of David Adjaye's architecture on the Idea Stores in London. Swiss artist Daniela Keiser was inspired by these public libraries, which aim to enhance neglected neighborhoods and provide access to education and information.
The book pairs Keiser's photographic reflections with a conversation between Adjaye and art historian Philip Ursprung. They discuss Keiser's perception of the site and the influence of urban design on the surrounding world.
This unique collaboration offers insight into the small, everyday variations of city life and the role of architecture in shaping our surroundings.
