A Book Box
A new use for an old favorite book. Looks artsy, but is it practical?
?a book box? presents the beloved, yet long-not-read, book mounted to the wall. Framed and exhibited, it is presented with a new functionality. Opened, the book covers the contents inside. Closing the book opens the box. The book turns into a trap door that reveals a storage area or secret compartment.
If interest in the book remains it is very easy to take the contraption of the wall and read the book, inside the box. http://aust-amelung.com/book-box/
