87 Scintillating Shelves
From Optical Illusion Shelves to Spider Web Bookcases:
Katherinev123 — Dec 29, 2009 — Art & Design
If you’re a bookworm like me, chances are you don’t pass by the furniture aisle without taking a peek at the shelving (I don’t care for any other kind of furniture as long as I have shelves for my books). And even if you don’t use shelves for books, they are still fundamental to any living environment—that is, if you don’t want to stack your DVDs, pictures, souvenirs, and other knick knacks in piles around the floor of your home. This collection of scintillating shelves includes all the shelving designs you could ever dream of and more.
