The senior thesis project is an open ended project given to Auburn University Graphic Design Students on their last semester. For this project I created a book store/ library named A Thousand Lives.

“A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one.” 

–George R.R. Martin, A Dance With Dragons

A Thousand Lives is a used bookstore and public library based in Atlanta, whose purpose is to make reading and book owning accessible for all. Bookstore culture has become exclusive, expensive, and wasteful, contrasting the purpose of the pursuit of knowledge. Accumulating and refurbishing used books decreases waste from new prints and decreases the cost to those who are budget conscious.
