Melbourne's first portable bookshop

"Australian bookshop owner Andrew Ball was struck by figures that showed only 18% of Australians would ever venture into a shop such as his, so he devised a way to take such shops to the remaining 82%. The prototype of his idea sits in front of the Federation Square staircase that links the square's open space to Flinders Street. Like a market stall it unfolds in the morning and refolds at night"
