Large Mid-Century Modern Bookcases
If you need much storage space, if you have lots of books and works of art to display, go for a large mid-century modern bookcase or shelf. It may be a whole wall taken by a bookcase – go for wooden boxes, open compartments of plywood plus metal or wood touches. Such a unit may also include closed storage units and even desks to save some space. If you have an open layout, why not use your large bookcase as a space divider? A bright bookcase by the wall is also a nice idea for those who don’t feel like wall-mounting, go for bold shades like blue, orange, emerald, yellow and other shades. If you don’t like to dust your shelves very often, add glass doors on top.
