Interior: McNally Jackson Cafe

i love the interior of the mcnally jackson cafe inside mcnally jackson bookstore, one of manhattan's largest independent bookstores. this modern cafe was designed by front studio.  let's start with how beautiful the mixture of suspended lights and suspended books feels.  then, the wall of pages looks like a stone tile or even concrete block from a distance.  i love the little pull down tables and really love the tile design on the front of the checkout counter.  beautiful design.  (via contemporist)
