Japanese designer creates innovative reading space
As I was blindly surfing the internet last night, I came across an interesting blog post about a Japanese designer that combined a bookcase and reading space. This would be great if you had a small house/apartment with limited space for furniture. It’s also nice to have your reading material right there within arm’s reach.
I’m not sure if this would be a good set-up for a tall person, such as myself, though.
What is your optimal reading space?

I guess I’ll start. I read the most in bed, at night, right before going to sleep. It’s a good way to relax.
But I also like to read at my desk. It doesn’t sound comfortable, but I have a good chair and when I kick my feet up, I can really lose myself in a good novel.
