The most disheartening part of this cycle must surely be the gradual deterioration of carefully-chosen notebooks (I can’t be the only one who insists on color-coordinating in some oblique yet ingenious way to match the subject matter of the class) now a shadow of their former shiny selves, not even fit to serve as breakfast for a particuarly voracious dog.

Both pieces demonstrate the same mischievous quality as Betak's notorious runway creations. A trichromatic lighting system makes it possible to change the color of each unit with the turn of a knob. And best of all, says Betak, "when the bookcase is full, you don't see the shelves anymore, and it seems like the books are floating...
