A bookcase, or bookshelf, is a piece of furniture, almost always used to store books. When you think of a bookshelf the first picture your mind creates is probably a conventional rectangular shape on the wall that has books inside of it, may be fitted with glass doors. However today we collected designs that are completely beyond boring. The designers who created these beautiful masterpieces, had to make sure the books would have room to fit, sturdy enough to withstand weight, and last but not least be visually attractive.

Booktree by Kostas Syrtariotis, the shelf takes on the sharp of a tree, the design based on a true story.
3. A Moroccan Inspired Bookshelf Design
The unit is made of eight identical and interlocking components with no need for additional hardware, making it easy to assemble, and the geometry of the shelf seems to create a strong and sturdy unit. It’s both an artistic centerpiece and storage piece.
4. Twig Twig Bookcase
The aptly named Twig Bookcase by FAKTURA resembles the natural outline of a tree branch, and combines good ol’ gravity and thoughtful design to create an interesting, sturdy way to house your books. Made from black powder-coated steel, the Twig is a freestanding piece.
5. Cave Bookcase
The Cave bookshelf allows you to literally do just that. Grab a book, climb in and forget the world. The concept behind this design follows that simple idea and turns a normal bookcase into a cool piece of seating.
6. Konnex Slot-in Bookcase
7. Circular Walking Bookshelf
Screw e-books, get a circular walking bookshelf instead designed by David Garcia.
8. Spell Shelf
We’d love to see the living room that this matched where the seating spelled out words like “sofa”. That way there would be no mistaking what all of your furniture is used for. That is of course unless your house guests don’t speak English. Those poor saps will have to figure it out based on context.
9. Wisdom Tree
Spanish designer Jordi Milà has created the WisdomTree bookshelf. She said: “The WisdomTree is for people who see books as a source of knowledge and emotions and not simply as decorative objects. Its fluid and organic shape is inspired by growth of a plant. The books that represent the fruit of knowledge are supported by pieces covered in leather.”
10. K Workstation
The folding curved shape creates shelving and desk space within one working unit. K Workstation could be manufactured each segments for easy fabrication process and transportation, yet it could be configured with multiple possibilities.
