This is an inspirational book that explores over 150 ways in which
books can not only be stored, but made to play a full part in the
character of a home, be it large or small, minimalist or full of
cluttered charm. Books are among the commonest but most treasured
possessions in a home, yet their storage and display is often
neglected and not given serious consideration as part of the
interior design - something all the more necessary as the functions
of home and workplace now often merge. Chapters are devoted to
separate rooms, looking in turn at reception rooms, home offices,
and libraries, as well as kitchens, bathrooms, and bedrooms, with
over 180 colour photographs from around the world providing a
wealth of inspiration. Ingenious space-saving devices are
illustrated for storing books in odd spaces within the home - for
example in staircases, corridors, and hallways. There is a chapter
on caring for books, plus practical pages providing useful
technical hints for planning and building bookshelves (scale,
proportion, materials, fittings, etc), complete with illustrated
step-by-step instructions showing how to carry out your own
imaginative book-storage projects. Special double-page features
appear in each chapter on topics such as ingenious designer
solutions, book plates, and creating furniture out of books.
