@BOOKHOUSE I make things.
Not as often or intensively as I would like to.
Because life is a LOT.
And yet.
Still, I make. 😊

So the idea of Bookhouse is basically inspired by this book from 1979 called ‘Masquerade’ by an artist called Kit Williams.
He hid a golden hare in the UK and wrote this book and filled it full of paintings as the clues to where the treasure is buried.
I’m trying to do the same. But different.

Found some books in a bookstore with a strange printing quality. May be so good but something was missing and I was not sure. Scanned the web address printed in the back but this led me to a blank site.
Can't trust in a kind of book like that!

News | Literary hotels that showcase a novel guest experience – CoStar
7 stays with overflowing bookshelves, reading-ready nooks
The Bookhouse Hotel at Faunbrook has seven rooms designed for book lovers by book lovers. (The Bookhouse Hotel)By Natalie Harms, Rachel Daub, CoStar News, September 19, 2025 | 7:23 AM
Books transport their readers to new destinations within the pages. In turn, some hotels have taken a novel approach to providing a literary experience to guests.
From wall-to-wall bookshelves to specialty suites, these seven hotels lean into the literary world and the power of the written word.
Click through the slideshow of these literary hotels and scroll down to learn more about each one.
https://flo.uri.sh/visualisation/25162684/embed
Setting: New York, New York
Synopsis: This 60-key, independent luxury hotel was built in 1912 and renovated in 2012, according to CoStar data. The owner and operator, Library Hotel Collection, has three other New York hotels, but the Library Hotel in Midtown Manhattan is its literary crown jewel. The hotel has more than 6,000 books decorating its halls and restaurant concept called Madison & Vine. The Writer’s Den and Poetry Garden & Terrace on the 14th floor transforms each evening into Bookmarks Lounge, a rooftop bar with literary-inspired cocktails.
Main character: The Library Hotel’s biggest literary aspect is its tribute to the Dewey Decimal Classification. Each of the 10 guestroom floors is themed to the major categories of the system: social science, literature, philosophy, religion and more. Each guestroom has 50 to 150 books plus artwork themed to a unique subgenre from each floor’s category.
Setting: Newport, Oregon
Synopsis: Inspired by Sylvia Beach — an American who founded the Shakespeare and Company bookstore in Paris — Hotel Sylvia has 22 rooms and originally opened in Newport, Oregon, in the early 1900s as a boarding house. In 1984, the hotel was bought and renovated to honor Beach, who was close friends with Ernest Hemmingway and James Joyce, who ended up creating a character for Beach in his novel Ulysses in tribute to her help getting him a publishing deal. The hotel was renovated earlier this year, entering its new chapter with its reopening in July.
Main character: In honor of Beach’s literary career, the Hotel Sylvia has a handful of author-themed rooms — from William Shakespeare to Jane Austen — as well as literary-genre rooms and suites. The lobby and café are surrounded by bookshelves and cozy reading spots for guests to peruse and enjoy.

The Book House carries New, Used, Rare, and Out Of Print books - and is home to some cats - & a few resident ghosts.
There's Valerie, a little redhead child from the 1880s. Employees & visitors hear her giggling as she moves books & she has been seen walking past windows. Then there's the Dark Man & the Smoking Man(who walks through the store smoking his pipe).

From a whole Library of Things to a tiny plant and seed library, Tool Libraries to street corner book cupboards, it's amazing what communities can borrow and share.
How is your community reinventing the idea of the library - or how could you??
Be inspired by these great projects by Bath Share and Repair, Incredible Edible Garforth's Little Veg Library, Belfast Tool Library and the Little Bookhouse.

Just watched Identikit (aka "The Driver's Seat"). It might be at a low point in Elizabeth Taylor's career but it is peak Liz to me.
Recommending this and Kier-La Janisse's book House of Psychotic Women: An Autobiographical Topography of Female Neurosis in Horror and Exploitation Films that got me interested in the film.
