Description
Book SynopsisFrom the conceptual Read-Unread Bookshelf (which weighs books read against those still to be started) to the multi-function Trick (a unit that transforms from shelf-space into a table and two chairs), this title presents over 200 inventive and experimental book shelving designs in more than 400 colour illustrations.
Trade Review'In this day of e-readers and downloads, it is refreshing to see a celebration of the real thing - books. 'Bookshelf' does so in a relevant rather than nostalgic way, taking a look at clever, beautiful and useful examples of modern shelving design' - Daily Telegraph
