Reclaimed pine and steel give this bookcase its industrial charm. At 84″ wide (7 feet!), you’ll be sure to have plenty of space for stacks of books and miscellany… lots of room for those of you with big collections.

Shipping is about $185 give or take, fyi.

This tilted bookcase is just strange enough to be interesting, yet, thankfully, despite that allure its price tag remains well under the $1G mark. Whether you use it as a room divider or as a normal bookcase against a wall, it’ll display your treasures in a minimal (and interesting) way.

Other sizes available:
Double Delta Bookshelf (H76 x W38 x D12 in), $592.00
Delta Extended Bookshelf I (H76 x W75 x D12 in), $1,100.00

Also found the Delta Extended Bookshelf II (H76 x W103 x D12 in.) for $1265 at 2bmod.com

Do you remember Scout Regalia of garden box fame? Well, now they’ve introduced the first piece in their indoor furniture collection and it doesn’t disappoint. The SR Bookcase is available as a 1, 2, or 3 bay system, which means you can customize it to fit whatever space you need and there’s a whopping 210 paint colors and sealed wood options to choose from. Standing at 7′-8′ high with 5 shelves and 2 adjustable shelves within the base cabinets, I’d say it’s sure to fit a fair share of books and such.

Movable storage units are handy to have, especially if you get bored with the way your furniture is arranged or if you move around a lot. Just recently I ran across these Cubo storage units by LOT61, a small furniture workshop founded by Datumzero Design Office. Doesn’t mean much to you unless you’re in the biz, I guess, but they specialize in contemporary storage pieces, all of which are particularly nice and worth checking out if you’re in the market for consoles or credenzas. We’ll most likely do other posts on more of their collection soon.

Interesting display shelving by Marcel Wanders for Moooi would be perfect for displaying records, books, or photos.

Jonah Takagi is a Japanese/American RISD graduate who I discovered through the Matter Made line sold at Matter. His work is simple and beautiful. This piece is made of birch and can be used as a storage system or room divider and it packs flat and uses no fasteners.

There’s nothing like a bunch of boxes to fit random storage needs. This set by The Utility Collective includes six boxes of varying size that you can stack any way you want. If you get bored, just mix/move it around. It’s also nice that the more squarish boxes can double as end tables if needed.

This rather simple shelving system gives a sense of lightness despite its size. Soap-treated oak sticks, powder-coated steel and screws give the frame strength and stability, and don’t worry if pink and sky blue don’t quite suit your interior plans, as both sizes are available in three different colors.

Material: Soap-treated oak, Powder-coated steel

The e15 Shelving creates interesting patterns for displaying books, records, magazines and collectibles with the joinable, seamless units with endless configuration possibilities. The construction allows the unit to be put against the wall as traditional shelving, or can even be used as wall dividers.

The unit comes in 2 different heights and is available in either white MDF or waxed oak.

Indie Furniture certainly has hit a lot of the right targets with their new customizable furniture. Rather than selling a completed product, Indie Furniture provides universal shelving joints that ultimately require you to put together yourself with your own provided wood. The benefit of this is that you can customize your shelving to your exact needs, use any type of wood you desire, save a whole lot on shipping, and enjoy the task of putting together your own set of furniture. Customization is done through their online configurator which tells you final dimensions, how many connectors are needed, the cost of the connectors, and how many wood panels are needed—all in one convenient PDF! Brilliant I’d say.

So, get this, that’s the price. There’s no ‘1’ missing, nor any zeros. And why does a bamboo bookshelf that looks this cool have the reasonable price tag of $699? Apparently the retailer doesn’t use distributors; they manufacture their products on demand and sell them direct. Hmm… any takers?
