This is a list of "cool" bookshelves.
Great! Except, er, I like books. Which means they are pretty much all (apart from the stairs, which are awesome) things I would never even consider having because they would either damage the books or just no hold enough. It pretty much sums up what I don't like about modern design: it's mostly impractical. I want my bookshelves to hold as many books safely as possible.
Like the Alessi lemon squeezer, they're for people who place style above practicality.
