Raw-Edges' Bloom is now showing at Most Salone as part of the Milan furniture fair. The book loom is hosted by the café in the beautiful Cloisters at Tom’s Dixon’s initiated space at the Museum of Science and Technology.

 

We commissioned Raw-Edges to design a bespoke bookcase to house one selected work of fiction from each of Granta’s Best of Young British Novelists from the last 3 decades. Throughout 2013, the British Council and Granta are collaborating on an international showcase of contemporary British novelists and the book loom will travel the world housing the collection of literature. Milan is the first showcase of Bloom ahead of the London announcement of the 2013 list of writers on 15 April.
