The Paper Bookshelf
We've been trying to think through what the digital evolution of the bookshelf might be. And this campaign is our first attempt at fumbling through an answer.

This kind of interaction makes it a "living" object, that changes its shape and size according to its usage. Sizes: 150 x 85 x 35, extracted 150 x 145 x 35 Material: Plywood, MDF, PU-finish, mechanical components (steel)

Bookshelf book reviewed in Los Angeles Times
The wit and delight that the designers seem to have taken in making these bookshelves collides head-on with the rise in reading on hand-held devices.

Libreria Nomade/Nomadic Bookcase
Born out of personal necessity as a simple NID (Non-Intentional Design). It is essentially a bookcase made from plastic orange crates but is practical, versatile, coloured, transportable and infinite. The point in question is: can a logo go further than NID and transform some plastic crates into a design product?

Stand Alone
The average bookshelf or bookends could prevent books from tilting. However when we remove one book, the adjacent books may tilt or fall. The more books that are removed will increase the problem. By using the special column arrangement of this new product called STAND ALONE this problem is solved. This new and innovative bookshelf on the wall makes each book stand upright, even with the absence of adjacent books. In this way the user can more easily classify the books.

Bookshelf book reviewed in Wall Street Journal
"My own bookshelves are conventionally functional, unlike many of the bookshelves pictured in Mr. Johnson's paean to the physicality of the bound and printed word. Many of the featured bookshelves are more like sculpture than furniture, but they nonetheless store books. If bookshelves eventually go the way of spinning wheels and washboards, Mr. Johnson's book will remind our descendants of the whimsy and glory of making theater out of book storage"

Aliante
The idea is to create a 'low air-resistance' piece of furniture. The inspiration comes from aeronautics (Aliante is the italian word for glider) and the shape of the shelves reminds the wings of the aircraft. The winglets at the end of the shelves also create the bookends. The overall dimensions of the bookshelf are quite big (2,2 mt high and 2,7 mt wide) despite its very light and slim structure.

Fold Out-Fold up
The idea is that you fold them out to cover anything shameful you might have behind. So if you have an embarrassing book case with lots of Mills and Boon or the Twilight books or something, you fold out my book shelf cover and put it in front.

A bookish corner: Bookshelf in the Chicago Tribune
Be it a hammock on a balcony, a pile of pillows squeezed into the corner of a landing or a recliner beside a fireplace in an oak-paneled library, creating an area devoted to reading is a deeply personal endeavor to be filled with those things that bring out your best literary self... "At a time when there are so many other...things yelping for our attention, a temple to reading appears more important than ever," said Alex Johnson, author of "Bookshelf" (Thames and Hudson), a very cool compilation of creatively designed bookshelves, due out in May.

Yule
Wooden bookshelf thought for those who need to add new shelves but have no more free space along the walls. It can be placed everywere in the room and fixed to the ceiling. Yule optimizes the room at the top and allows you to walk above.
