BOOX is a mobile, modular structure designed to travel between elementary schools. It functions both as a library and as an atmospheric environment that transforms reading into a joyful and immersive experience. It is intended for school communities where the connection between children and books has faded into the background.
BOOX avoids prescribing specific uses. Its open form invites children to inhabit and shape it freely, generating their own spatial narratives. The flowing geometry dissolves conventional notions of library, reading area, threshold, and enclosure. Every surface and opening encourages exploration.
Within this setting, reading becomes associated with autonomy, comfort, and discovery. The unusual spatial experience awakens curiosity—about books, but also about what architecture is and how it supports emotion, action, and thought.
BOOX highlights a systemic gap in the Greek education system: although books are often promoted, spaces that foster true engagement are rarely provided. Through its design and intent, BOOX brings books and architecture from the margins into the heart of school life.
