Bring This Book to Me
This project right here is about a notch. A notch in the top of a book. In every single page along the top, making it a cinch to pull out with your finger from your collection on the shelf. It’s all about getting that book all out of the shelf, all at once. Truly taking the book off the shelf is the most taxing of steps in reading a book, especially in a simple thin book like the one in the example here. But if you’re reading The Fountainhead, still, you wanna make it as easy as possible. Whip it out!
The original title of this project was “Come on my book,” but because it is part of my job to help in translating for brilliant designers who require assistance in English, especially with unfortunate slang similarities, I decided to add a comma. This project shall henceforth be known as “Come On, My Book.” Certainly that is the intention.

Interesting, or you could just put a ribbon in the binding.

interesting idea but i fear that the pages will rip a lot easier than normally if you have a notch in all of them.

Its a little bit pointless don’t we think?

I’ve never had a problem with getting books from a shelf, unless it’s too high.
Libary chairs that turn into little steps are cooooooooooooooooooool

I guess I could see this if you wedge your books onto a shelf so tightly you can’t grasp them any other way…
Personally I agree it would ruin the looks and probably lead to easier page tearing.
