The Colorful L’Arco Della Pace Bookshelf

Posted on November 28, 2010 by Tanya Posted in Home Storage & Shelving, Shelves, Shelving

My mind instantly conjures up the song "Somewhere over the rainbow" when I look at the L'Arco Della Pace Bookshelf. This visually stunning bookshelf catches the eye and captures the heart thanks to the charming rainbow hues. Built by Martino Gampe, the L'Arco has its roots in history since the architectural elements are no coincidence and seeks to replicate the Arco della Pace which is part of the Piazza Sempione in Milan. Measuring 124" h x 87" w, the bookshelf is constructed of vibrantly colored veneered poplar plywood segments which makes it the anti-thesis of the usually traditional shelves.

When asked what it wanted to be when it grew up this ladder probably answered it dreams about becoming a Bookshelf Chair. That's the name of this particular project that comes all the way from India and is inspired by common ladders. This Bookshelf Chair looks like a ladder and certainly can act as one, but it's also a pretty comfortable chair to enjoy a quick read. The Bookshelf Chair has enough storage space for all your favorite books and magazines and will bring a touch of personality to your home office.

Kinzo Air Cabin Is Futuristic And Functional

Posted on November 23, 2010 by Tanya Posted in Home Office Furniture, Office Furniture

Design studio Kinzo has a penchant for streamlined aesthetics and forms that borrow heavily from jet fighters and airplanes. Hence its no coincidence that their critically acclaimed Kinzo Air Cabin follows in the same vein. Characterized by a scuplturalistic silhouette, a futuristic functionality and almost abstract aesthetics, the Air Cabin is a testament to modern day engineering and highlights intelligent design. The spacious file storage system can hold up to 90 files and comes equipped with flush-mounted sliding doors and a niftily designed lift and slide mechanism. The unusual asymmetrical form factor may be too much for the traditionalists, but there is no denying that the Kinzo Air is an extremely well-designed work cabinet that has been styled with a rare contemporary chutzpah.

"Kinzo Air is an office furniture programme with a resolutely futuristic design approach," said Karim El-Ishmawi, Kinzo designer. "Every piece of furniture has a distinctive sculptural and architectural quality - functionality does not need to rhyme with blandness. Supersized cable ducts, steal skids instead of table legs and many other details make office work easier and more inspirational. Our filing cabinet is a logical addition to the programme.

Granny Wall Shelf Pays Homage To Doily Crochet

Posted on October 6, 2010 by Tanya Posted in Home Storage & Shelving, Shelves, Shelving

Modern mavens may turn down their noses on any product that has the term "granny" in it but the Granny Wall Shelf surely deserves a second glance. A modern take on something as wholesome as the art of doily crochet making,the shelf not only pays an ode to a traditional art but is also a welcome blast from the past. Made from steel and not lace (obviously), the wall shelf is the brainchild of Beerd van Stokkum who has opted for classic colors like black and black. Having a length of 85 cm and a depth of 22.5 cm, the Granny Wall Shelf is even durable enough to use outdoors but personally given its intricate patterned design, I would love to showoff my favorite home accessories on it. You can order it online from here.

The collection features a plethora of shelving units however, the low table, the bookshelf and the bedside shelving system are its highlight. The bends in the wall-mount units are no coincidence and contribute both to the aesthetical and functional value. Available in four metallic shades of powder-coated aluminum , the Wave Collection is not only practical but also stylish.

"Pallet" Magazine And CD Holder

Posted on September 13, 2010 by Tanya Posted in Home Storage & Shelving, Modern Furniture, Shelves

Industrial designer Flavia Dalla Pellegrina does away with all the design cliches that are generally associated with the usually prosaic storage unit. The "Pallet" Magazine and CD Holder has been designed to integrate with its surroundings and calling it a modern day library won't be an exaggeration on my part. Constructed from wood, the "modular library" can be fixed into a wall or stand tall in a large space and beckons you to share your eclectic tastes with panache.

Bucefalo Sofa Holds All Your Books When You’re Not Reading

Posted on September 10, 2010 by chris Posted in Home Storage, Home Storage & Shelving, Shelving, Sofa, Sofas

The Bucefalo Sofa is a useful piece of living room furniture even when you're not at home, enjoying its comfort. The sofa itself is a great choice for some afternoon reading, but when you're not really interested in any of your favorite books you'll be able to deposit them neatly right underneath the whole seating area. That's right, this Bucefalo Sofa doubles as a storage area, and the couch itself is definitely candy for the eye. Coincidentally, just yesterday we showed you a staircase that hides a bookcase and today we have a sofa that can store plenty of books, whenever needed. Which one of these two storage solutions would you choose? If your answer is "An eBook Reader!" then I'll advise you to check the Bucefalo Sofa instead of the Staircase. It's a lot more comfortable when it comes to using that eReader. Via Emanuele Canova

Staircase/Bookcase Design Has a Double Personality

Posted on September 10, 2010 by chris Posted in Home Storage, Home Storage & Shelving, Shelving

What do you do when you have too many books in print? You either get a Kindle in order to better manage your reading passion, or build yourself an out-of-the-box storage solution like the Staircase/Bookcase project in the images above. It's one of the most efficient designs I've ever seen when it comes to storing book collections, but there are a couple of downsizes too when looking at this bookcase with a double personality. First of all you need a two-story house or apartment, otherwise building such a storage design will lose its second functionality and thus its coolness. But most importantly using the Staircase/Bookcase as an actual staircase might not be something you'll want to do since inevitably, you'll end up getting dirt on some of your favorite titles.
