Deep Reading Garden

An immersive space inspiring calmness, contemplation, and deep listening

An immersive space for book and prints enthusiasts

A Deep Reading Garden, is produced in collaboration with Plethora Magazine and Københavns Møbelsnedkeri and transforms a part of the Book & Print Fair into an immersive space inspiring calmness and contemplation.

Produced sustainably using local materials, the installation will channel the Japanese principles of Ikebana to create an environment rich in flora, natural scents, raw wood, and other pleasing textures. Here you will also find an immersive installation featuring sound, smells, video projections, and textiles.

The atmosphere inside the Deep Reading Garden will change throughout the day according to the light conditions, temperature, and levels of activity.
