Almost every household, especially in the living room, has bookshelves filled with stacks of books or simply for displaying decorations. Many people design their bookshelves as an 'identity' for the residents. Some opt for luxurious and grand designs, while others prefer simple and small ones. Let's take a look at how intriguing the layouts of bookshelves can be.

For those who like to mix the function of bookshelves with other items, such as displaying collectibles, action figures, or even flower vases, this bookshelf surrounds one side of the living room or family room. Each opening in the bookshelf measures quite large, between 30cm to 40cm, with a central space for artwork and a sofa, ensuring it doesn't clutter the floor space. The blue color running along the bookshelf exudes a calm character, complementing the colorful array of displayed items.

The second design is more conventional, ordinary, and elegant. The bookshelf is arranged vertically with a considerable number of storage spaces. The surface of the bookshelf gives the impression that it's made of raw wood or laminated wood with a wood-like pattern, both of which are good choices. Each bookshelf compartment is designed as a rectangular cuboid, making it easy to place and retrieve books and other items. Another notable detail is the consistent material and color between the work desk and bookshelf, reducing distractions when working in that space.

If reading is one of your hobbies, then it's not excessive to dedicate a special room for bookshelves, a reading corner, and admiring your book collection covers. The bookshelves in this room cover every wall except the window area. Despite looking packed with book displays, the numerous sliding windows in the room provide a sense of openness by allowing ample light and fresh air circulation. This is beneficial for residents to enjoy extended reading sessions and appreciate the displayed bookshelves.

Already provided all the design elements in the living room and still feel like something is missing? Try trendy bookshelves like the one in the photo above. The interior design concept of this family room appears monotonous with no focal point. However, unusual bookshelf designs can transform the entire room's appearance and theme. The wooden table-shaped bookshelf has a rectangular base divided into many lines, forming triangular shapes that truly catch the eye. Residents have easy access to the shelves, supported by chairs and a sofa around the bookshelf, making it a cozy spot to relax and read their favorite books.

That concludes the review of different bookshelf designs, each with its unique features. Considering bookshelves is a great idea as many residents add items to their homes periodically, and there's often no space to store all the new belongings. Hopefully, this provides some inspiration.
