A novel idea

  • Housetrends
Bookshelf with plenty of storage space
Simple and practical, the Bookshelf from Cappellini is for avid readers looking to store a large collection.

Once upon a time, there was a high-tech heyday where everybody decided to give e-books a whirl. Not a particularly lengthy chapter, many people reverted back to traditional books before long, preferring the feel of pages turning under their fingertips to the single tap of an arrow on a smudged screen. Today’s designers have recognized this reversal in trends and have played out their dialogue to a T, delighting bookworms everywhere by churning out a variety of chic bookcases.  It would be extremely “shelfish” of us not to share these with you, but don’t worry, no spoilers here! Scroll through to check out these beauties.
