For the last year or so my books have been homeless. They have been stacked up on the floor of our spare room since they outgrew our Billy bookcase.
I knew I wanted them in the living room, but the room has limited wall space, and the space that was available was a strange one- one that needed a bespoke solution. That sounds a bit over-the-top, but we actually found this great shop on eBay called Stratosphere Design who designed to our measurements AND delivered the bookshelves! They look great! I knew I wanted a kind of industrial look and feel- this blog post from Apartment Therapy gave some inspiration and plenty of US stores to visit and check them out
Here’s the image on Stratosphere Design’s eBay Store currently listed at £185
There are plenty of off the shelf options available as well- I did a lot of hunting before ordering ours and the “best of” are below if you’re looking for an industrial style in your home
Maisons Du Monde Long Island Shelves £169.90
NWArtisanHardware have a Rustic Industrial Steel Bookcase for $620 and they also ship worldwide!
I arranged the books in colour order- but had to look up how to do it! It can look great if you have the wall space to have the full rainbow on display!
