In Mexico City sits Librería Casa Bosques, an outstanding independent bookstore full of carefully curated independent books and magazines.

Librería Casa Bosques very well may be a reader’s dream come to true. It’s here in Mexico City that an outstanding selection of national and international books and magazines from the independent scene are carefully curated and for sale under one roof. Publications, printed art, architecture, photography, critical theory and art, fashion, and design ? all obtained from independent publishers and alternative distribution channels by way of artist book fairs, trips abroad, or directly from their authors. Casa Bosques also acts as a platform, actively supporting and promoting projects and collaborations between creators of the local and international scenes: editors, artists, and photographers among others, who make everything from editorial projects to talks to performances and other endeavors. In other words, Casa Bosques is the scene.

We were walking to colonia Roma, and at the very end I saw this beautiful Franco-Mexican house and fell for it. I made my way in and, of course, the space was too big for the studio and its things, so I decided to give a proper space to chocolates and the big passion I’ve always had for art books.
