Bookshelf Design Ideas

If you’re into reading and you love collecting books, you probably have come across bookshelves all the time. Admittedly, they’re usually uninteresting and pretty boring. 

But books always make an impression to visitors. So, why not make more of an impression with some unique and fresh bookshelf design possibilities? 

I’ve collected these interesting and innovative ideas – indeed, they can turn any room into something special.


No post about uncommon bookshelves can call itself complete without featuring the staircase book shelf. A staircase that doubles up as a home library.



A design that enhances the utility of the ordinary bookshelf by providing shelving which requires no bookends or heavy-handed adjustments when a book is removed from the stack. 

It’s simplicity also adds elegance without removing any previous storage or decorative capabilities. Designed by David Ngo.


Where is the ‘bookshelf’ here? I see only books. Well, look carefully, the bottom most book is a cleverly designed bracket for the shelf. 


This book shelf, which holds up to 15 pounds of books, screws directly into a wall stud and presto, you have an invisible book shelf! The maximum stack height is 16 inches. 

This invisible bookshelf which has already won design awards, is innovative, inspirational and imaginative. Designer: Miron Lior.



Rangers underlined their status as the Scottish Premiership's dominant side with a third Old Firm derby victory of the season against Celtic. Yup, the former thumped the latter 4-1 in yesterday’s Scottish Premiership match. 

Another routine win for Rangers; another soul-sapping defeat for Celtic. Sigh!

The victory means Rangers are two games away from an unbeaten league campaign, which would match their city rivals' feat of 2016-17. Celtic are already sure of second spot but trail their rivals by a galling 23 points, and have gone a full season without winning a derby for the first time since 1999-2000.

Best Under Staircase Ideas

Most double-storey homes have this small space underneath the staircase. More often than not, it is transformed into a storeroom or a utility closet space. 

But with a little imagination and creativity, this space can be used in so many other ways – whether as a home office space/a study; a library; a cozy reading corner; a bar; a nursery, a play area; a laundry room; a guest toilet; or for atmosphere-controlled storage, e.g. wine cellar.
