What Houzz contributors are saying:
This image sums up my favorite way to display books - in conjunction with other objets d'arts. These busy stacks of books are perfectly balanced by clean Asian-influenced sculptures.
My love for books as a design element is well established - and here I absolutely love how they're mixed with cool sculptures that look like they might be high-end travel souvenirs. This wall tells a million stories - it's a great conversation-starter.
added by Kit Pollard to The Shelf Project
I'm a fan of shelves that are painted in contrasting colors. In my house, if I decide not to go the wallpaper route, I'll definitely paint the back of my shelves a different color than the shelves themselves. In this case, I especially like how the backgrounds are slightly different shades. Not enough that the difference is jarring, or distracts from what's displayed, but just enough to be interesting.
A great trick to remember when you are displaying books on a bookshelf is that you can also display other objects with them. The sculptures and vases here make the bookcase more of an art display than merely a place to stick your books.
added by Niche Interiors to 5 Ways to Maximize Your Space!
Think Vertical: Use Height for Storage. This is one of the first things I notice in a client’s home when I look at storage issues. Often, people simply overlook the height of their ceilings and the amount of storage that this can provide. Look for furniture pieces that take advantage of that height. Not only will higher pieces add variety and interest to the space, they also bring the eye upwards and can enhance the feeling of spaciousness.
added by ds design studio to Cozy Contemporary Living Spaces
These rows of books and art reveal the personality of the homeowner, adding familiarity and coziness. Furniture is grouped together to encourage friendly conversation.
added by Shoshana Gosselin to 19 Double-Duty Living Rooms
Add chunky large open shelves and you can display both books and custom art pieces for both a library to read in and a living room full of interest.
added by ds design studio to Put Your Collection on Show
In a bookcase. To break up all the rows of books,integrate your art collection into your shelves.
If you don't have a large collection of something, combining the interesting pieces you have among books is a good way to get the well-traveled look.
