12. The Bookworm Bookcase
Dutch designers Atelier 010 have created a feat of furniture design that will be an immediate hit among book-lovers. Titled “the Bookworm,” this unique shelf meets chair was made from a commission asking the designers to create an “organic” bookcase. The result is a curved piece of furniture that sculpturally offers a place to sit, relax, read, and store your favorite books.
13. Opus Shelving
This quasi-hexagonal pattern bookcase ( Opus Shelving by Sean Yoo’s ) is made with “expanded polypropylene”- same material used for the car bumper and motorcycle helmet. It is very light but very strong, can be used indoor or outdoor and 100% recyclable. It wasn’t designed specifically to be used as a book case. I’ve seen some people use it for storing wine bottles, children’s toys, CD’s, DVD’s, records, and even an occasional book or two.
14. Gravity-Defying Bookcase
Even with more people moving over to e-books, we’re unlikely to see the extinction of the paper book in this lifetime. However, chances are, we won’t be turning to them for reference (thanks, Wikipedia and dictionary.com), only heading to the shelf for that comforting read. What this means, then, for bookshelves, is that people will either want them to camouflage with the decor, or more likely, serve as decorative statement pieces. This cluster examines some of the unique modern bookshelves that have surfaced from around the world.
15. Movement Bookcase
“A bookcase that embraces your books.”
16. Modular Shelving Unit: ‘Vjunok/Bindweed’ Series

20. Shelf Life Unit or Room Divider
“Shelving unit or room divider in lacquered LDF (low density MDF) with removable chair and side table. Shelflife’s striking angular appearance belies a practical functionality. Angular shelves prevent books from toppling, while the chair and table provide a convenient place to browse the collection.”
21. The Tectonic Bookshelf
22. Has Been Read…Will Be Read Bookshelf
“Simple way of organizing your books as “has been read” and “will be read”. When we look at an ordinary book shelves we just see a boring stack of books which all books get lost in each other. Even when we buy a new book and plan to read it later, after a short time it gets forgotten in this book chaos. Aim of “TarGetBooks” design is based on this point.”
23. The Yule Bookshelf
“Wooden bookshelf thought for who needs to add new shelves but has no more free space along the walls.It can be placed everywhere in the room and fixed to the ceiling.Yule optimizes the room at the top and allows you to walk above.”

29. Book Rack in Wenge
“The book rack comes in solid Wenge, with a set of 12 pins/bookmarks. The pins are detached and can be moved around the back piece to meet your needs at each time. The books rest on a small wooden plate so the pages stay intact. The plates can be moved back and forth on the bottom of the book to control the height of which the book hangs, making it possible to line different sized books up in a straight line.”
