"Oh, the farmer and the cowman should be friends," is a new artistic design from the masterful Ron Arad.
The creative bookshelf design uses the map of the United States of America divided into different states.
If you wanted to categorize your books by state, you could put fashion magazines into New York, while the erotic novels could go into California.
The 2009 design is set to be exhibited alongside other new works from Ron Arad at the Timothy Taylor Gallery in London between April 8 and May 9, 2009.
