The Bolted Book has been described as a “portable museum.” With the bolts loosened, the pages can be removed and displayed exhibition style. Now you have a chance to display any of the 240 pages from The Bolted Book as art prints on your wall. Designers & Books is excited to announce that we are holding a drawing to give away a frame that fits your Bolted Book pages exactly and will show them off beautifully.

HOW TO ENTER

Enter to win by Wednesday, February 1, 12:00 AM (EST).

Win a Special Frame to Display Pages from The Bolted Book

The Hanging Magnet Frame (14 x 11 in.) by Canetti is made of two panels of clear, solid acrylic, which are held together by tiny magnet points. The page from the book can be very easily placed between the two panels and is held securely with no additional hardware. The frame has a keyhole on the back and can hang on the wall either horizontally or vertically on a nail or screw. Once mounted, you only have to remove the front panel to replace your page.

Watch our video on The Bolted Book as 240 frameable prints for your wall.

Meet Me by the Fountain: An Inside History of the Mall by Alexandra Lange

Meet Me by the Fountain: An Inside History of the Mall

By Alexandra Lange
Publisher: Bloomsbury
Published: June 2022

Chronicles postwar architects’ and merchants’ invention of the shopping mall, revealing how the design of these marketplaces played an integral role in their cultural ascent. Publishers Weekly writes, “Contending that malls answer ‘the basic human need’ of bringing people together, influential design critic Lange advocates for retrofitting abandoned shopping centers into college campuses, senior housing, and ‘ethnocentric marketplaces’ catering to immigrant communities. Lucid and well researched, this is an insightful study of an overlooked and undervalued architectural form.”
