I have been on the lookout for new book clubs and book stores for some time as I'm curious which direction print will go in the future. The most recent addition to my new obsession is the OHWOW Book Club, part of Al Moran and Aaron Bondaroff’s creative collective with the same name.
The store is tiny, yet vibrant with black and white tiles inspired by pre-war, New York bathrooms and contrasting gold and silver graphics on a turquoise background inspired by traditional Navajo blankets and designed by Rafael de Cardenas.

The book club is located on the basement level in a residential building on Waverly Place in the West Village and is most definitely a destination shop not to miss with a well selected range of books representing the downtown art scene of New York (think Aurel Schmidt, NeckFace, legendary photojournalist Clayton Patterson and Heron Preston’s downtown yearbook of 2008 called The Young and The Banging.)
