15 Inspiring Wall Shelving For Books Ideas And Designs

Today, fewer and fewer in folio books are kept at home, so the least you can do is to use the books you still have as stylish accessories. Strategical position of a bookcase is the first thing to get you started. There are several ways on how a bookcase can make a statement in the room. Here, however, we would like to draw your attention to the actual models that can decorate your home. Here are 15 inspiring wall shelving for books ideas and designs:

Sleek curved designs

Snake-like curved shelves (with special hooks to keep the books from falling) is one of the most impressive wall shelving ideas for a modern room.

Connections between classic shelves

A similar — yet, more classic — effect can be achieved with standard wooden shelves. Simply add connections between them for a more impressive decorative effect.

Simple boxes

No one says that simple wall boxes are not impressive these days — just choose the books you display strategically and maybe even use a contrasting wood shade.

Honeycombs

 

Another incredibly modern idea that can make a statement in a living room or any other room you would like to keep books in.

Colourful backgrounds

 

A contrasting colourful background can stylishly highlight simple wall boxes and more creative honeycomb units. White shelves and bright background is a very eye catching decoration idea.

Thematic backgrounds

If you are not going to fill in the boxes with books only, a thematic (poster or old newspapers) background can prove to be even more impressive than a colourful monotonous one.

Angular units

Modern interiors with edgy, slightly aggressive decoration elements should best of all be equipped with angular stands — they will give the room a sleek look.

New life for the old furniture

Any old furniture (like a small cupboard) or even accessories (like a guitar case) can be equipped with shelves and turned into an inspiring stand.

Library carts

Or, you can make use of an old library cart — this will make your room interior even more memorable and impressive.

Transparent acryl

Practically invisible wall shelves, made of clear acryl, are some of the most inspiring wall shelving for books ideas and designs — especially for modern and minimalistic interiors.

Smart partitions

A floor to ceiling bookcase can break your room into separate areas, which may come in handy for overly narrow or otherwise awkwardly shaped rooms.

Abstract figures

Any type of shelves or acryl hooks can be used to draw book ‘mural’ on your walls — a very impressive idea, if approached creatively.

Novelty stands

Novelty stands and sleek magazine racks come in many shapes and colours, which is why you should check out a couple of models in stores.

Making use of the niches

And, of course, a small niche simply calls for a compact shelf to keep your books on without cluttering the room.

Making use of the beams

And so does your architectural beam (if any). Keeping your books on bare wooden ceiling beams will give a truly nice look to the interior.
