The folding bookshop

Australian bookshop owner Andrew Ball has dreamt up a new-style bookshop, a portable one that like a market stall unfolds in the morning and refolds at night, reports the Age.

Melbourne’s first portable bookshop has been licensed to self-confessed classics fanatic Ross Matthews and Ball hopes once the project is refined, it will go further — a series of mobile bookshops taken to fairs, markets and even country towns too small to support a bookshop in their own right.
