book shelf project 1 ~ striatic {notes} by striatic.

one of our bookshelves, it's got plenty of stuff in it.

it's an Ikea Expedit that we bought for its large square shelves that work well to contain our oversized textbooks and graphic novels

our paperback and hardcover novels are in another bookcase

This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.

i really like this shelving unit!

striatic says:

it's really very good ~ but it does waste some space if you are going to use it for small books

you can see here that it leaves quite a bit of room at the top of most of the shelves, where a traditional bookcase would have shelves of varying heights to avoid this problem

by doing away with the different shaped shelves it does take on a very striking grid pattern, however

This is cool. I was thinking of getting Expedit but now the plan revolves on Billy.

Nice picture. I have Billy myself on two walls (!)

The Expedit makes a good grid for a square photo and it looks like it helps to make order out of chaos.

chaos is right.

we don't have much space so that's about as good as it gets.

i'm glad i took a picture because i vow never to be that disorganized again.

but sometimes mess is fun to look at, especially when it is neatly divided into compartments.
