Books have been and remain faithful companions of man for hundreds of years. And although today, in the age of computerization of our entire life, prints are gradually replaced by various electronic gadgets, many people still prefer their favorite books in paper form.
Modern types of apartment design suggest an abundance of ideas for decorating an apartment with bookshelves. This can be as standard hinged, familiar to all of us shelves, and completely unusual specimens, only remotely resembling their appearance of a place for storing books.
Kinds of bookshelves in the interior
On the location of the bookshelves are floor and wall. The first, as a rule, have quite large dimensions and are installed in spacious rooms - for example, in the living room. Suitable shelves for studios, where a living room or kitchen is combined with a dining room. One of the options for this type of furniture is the so-called book wall - a large shallow cabinet in the entire wall, divided into several sections in height and width. Such a book wall is convenient to use as an element of space zoning. Completely differently, but no less spectacular is the heap of small shelves (most often modular) just in the middle of the room - for example, near a sofa, armchairs, etc.

Wall shelves have their advantage: they do not occupy as much space as floorboards. But they can visually hide the space, so their placement should be considered taking into account the design of a particular room. Also note that the times when the hanging shelf for books was just a long rectangular "box" is long behind. Today, furniture manufacturers surprise us with increasingly unusual exclusive options. Among such products you can note corner or removable models, and the most unusual and at the same time very convenient option is a shelf with a seat where you can comfortably read your favorite works.

The bookshelves also differ in form (from classical rectangular to fanciful oval, round, in the form of tetris, etc.). The latter will look perfect in the interior in the Art Nouveau style. Also in the trend now are original bookshelves with inclined diagonal surfaces, reminiscent of honeycomb.
