Ikushima Library Is the Most Incredible Booklover’s Paradise in Japan
Tell me where exists a booklover’s heaven Japan? This library is none other than the Ikushima Library. It rises in the outskirts west of Tokyo, in the same Kokubunji where the most celebrated Japanese contemporary writer Murakami Haruki ran his Jazz Bar.
The library is owned by two Japanese writers who planned a house that doubled their workspace.
This library’s shelves has been carved and perfected beautifully, in clean architecture. It is designed from not by people, but by tons and tons of books!
Everyone dubs this enormouse structure as a “House of Books, with Family.” At night it looks more beautiful!
