In the Sitterwerk library in St. Gallen, everyone shelves their book as they see fit, and temporary collections emerge in this way. Books with no apparent connection sometimes end up side by side on the same shelf. By removing all classifications, we make room for the unexpected. Looking for a specific book is no longer the main goal — it’s the experience of the place that matters most.

This object stems from a reflection on the book, taking as its subject the experience of selecting 100 publications based on a single criterion: their format, which had to be between A4 and A3. The books were all drawn from the catalogue of the Sitterwerk library.
