Tokyo Hotel 'Lets You Sleep in a Bookstore'

Shelf Awareness

Book and Bed, a new Tokyo hotel set to open in September, "invites bibliophiles to sleep in the stacks," Rocket News 24 reported, adding that the project is a cooperation between Suppose Design Office, Shibuya Publishing Booksellers and R-Store.

Suppose Design Office's bookshelves "are built complete with bunks you can crawl into, capsule hotel-style. And like a capsule hotel, these are not exactly private rooms, but I suppose if you are dreaming of dozing off in a bookstore, you are OK with that communality," Rocket News 24 wrote.
