Outline Our concept is to make use a surface of a car in order to represent potential of it as a possible media between private and public space. A surface of a car is a spot where private space (car’s salon) socializes with public space (environment).

Self - made and organized urban library. By exploring the potential of car’s surface, we utilize books (and other goods to be allocated for everyone), where any person who is interested may reach and use them easily.

The prototype of LINK consist of cotton (96%) and latex (4%). For example, the rubber used in tires (or chewing-gum) is a relatively easy material to reform by hand and could be used to produce the LINK.
