Hot Days Cool Books is an online book store co-founded by Meghan Ho-Tong and Daniel Malan in 2020, and run by Daniel since 2021. It specialises in art, architecture, design and Southern Africa.
For our temporary brick-and-mortar store, we imagined a colourful window display exhibition, recreating the pages of the books we've featured online as tangible, large-scale paper models.
The first iteration, an ikebana arrangement. The second, an interpretation of Alessandro Mendini's 1973 redesign of the Wassily chair by Marcel Breuer.
