Turn Your Books into a Sculptural Feature

Want to make your books fly, or at least look like they’re flying? Get Fiction, by Sebastian Bergne. It’s a bookstand that holds your books horizontally or vertically, you pick, and turns them into a gravity-defying piece of sculpture.

The stand is made from a strong sheet metal that’s almost hidden beneath the bottoms of your book so it’s hard to spot, making it look like your books are hovering in mid-air.

Fiction flips vertically so you can set it next to your favorite reading spot for easy access.

Fiction is currently a numbered personal edition by Bergne with only 25 being produced, but more will be made once the 25 sell out.
