„A man dares
the world blures…
To be drifted away
…new world awaits.”
„It is only with the heart that one can see rightly;
what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
Antoine Saint-Exupéry
The Little Prince
ABOUT
The purpose of a probe is usually to give us an access to somewhere difficult to reach. Through a probe we can travel to distant worlds, to the depths of the earth, to the hearts of ourselves. Our little library is a probe in a public space.
To make ourselves dare and enter. To pick up a book, to enter a story, to be carried away.
The library is a place of discarded books and no one knows what can be found there. It stands still and yet it can transport us elsewhere. The little library is the answer to the need to create a distinctive element on a common theme. The result is an urban furniture with a charm.
