The Southbank Book Maze

aMAZEme is a wonderful maze made out of 250,000 books; fiction, non-fiction, kids, adults, all sorts. It is part of the London 2012 Festival and when I chanced upon it in the Southbank Centre, I was immediately captivated by such a charming idea and execution. Getting lost (in theory, the maze isn't THAT big) and overwhelmed by thousands of books is such a unique feeling. Standing in the middle, where the wall of books towered above my head had a wonderfully calming effect on me.
