Bulgaria: ex-balneário Turkish bathroom turned into temporary Bookstore

Leave a Comment
By the end of the 20th century, this area of Plovdiv, in Bulgaria, was used as a dressing room Turkish bath â€" one of many of that region. With the closure of the facility, the Center for Contemporary Art of the city asked the Studio Studio 8 .5 to renovate the space and turn it into a temporary Bookstore.

The transformation is completely radical â€" can be bolder than this other Bookstore, in Ã"bidos-mainly due to stone and brick walls that give a chilly air to the interior of the building.

The reshuffle is part of the "urban dreams" festival of Bulgarian city and, as you can see, the space until it was quite nice. And even if the installation lasted only one week, the bookshop managed to join an "extraordinary collection of books, multimedia and videos by contemporary artists", explains the Inhabitat.

The idea of creating art centers or even temporary shops is not new, but can be a good way to remodel and renovate obsolete or abandoned spaces, so often forgotten in dense architectural fabric of the city.
