'THIS WAS A LOT OF FUN AND THE COOPERATION WITH YOU WAS VERY EASY-GOING.' - SAYS MYRIAM LANG, THE HEAD OF TRADE FAIRS AT SBVV, ZÜRICH.
THE BOOK FAIR IN LEIPZIG, GERMANY IS THE SECOND BIGGEST BOOK FAIR IN EUROPE AND INVITES A LOT OF VISITORS FROM THE GERMAN-SPEAKING AREA. AMONG ALL OTHERS ON AN AREA OF 117 m2 STANDS THE SWISS HUT REPRESATING THE MOST IMPORTANT PUBLISHERS FROM SWITZERLAND.
WITH THIS IDEA WE CREATED A WARM AND COMFORTABLE MOOD OF TRADITIONAL SWISS MOUNTAIN HUT. WE USED APPLE BOXES AS THE BOOK SHELFS TO GET THE FLEXIBILITY OF COMPOSITION. A DIFFERENT NEED OF SPACE OF EACH PUBLISHER ALLOWED US TO ARRANGE DIFFERENT HEIGHTS OF STACKS WHICH CREATED A 'SWISS MOUNTAIN PANORAMA'.
THE HALF-CLOSED AREA UNDER THE HUT'S ROOF GAVE THE VISITORS AND CUSTOMERS THE INTIMACY TO ENJOY THE BOOKS OR DISCUS POTENTIAL COOPERATIONS.
