Most homes have few articles of furniture that attain as dominant a reputation as the bookcase, which happens to also be one of the largest articles of furniture in most peoples' homes. The bookcase has historically been one of the most classic and important pieces of furniture in a home: bookcases have come to represent sophistication and erudition even, and having a classy bookcase in your home is a central part of achieving a nice degree of feng shui in your home.
The most basic thing you will want to pay attention to when choosing a bookcase for your home will be what kinds of materials the bookcase is made of: bookcases usually end up having to support a fair amount of weight, so having a bookcase made out of cheap materials just doesn't do it. Various types of hardwood are used for bookshelves in general, and the incorporation of metal is also fairly common. There are several different types of bookcases you could end up getting for your home, and just which one is best for you will depend on what kind of home you have, what free space you have for a bookcase, and what your tastes are.
Ladder Style Bookcase
Bookcases vary in size considerably, with some occupying entire walls and others only a tiny sliver of space, even a corner perhaps. Below, we'll go over a few of the different options available when buying bookcases:
One very classic style of bookcase would have to be the ladder bookcase, which has a high degree of functionality as well as being a very fashionable item. There is something very elegant about the ladder bookcase, and they are particularly popular in the decorative furniture area.
Another kind of bookcase that is equally as classy as the ladder bookcase would have to be the built-in bookcase. Built-in bookcases have to be much more well thought out than any other kind of bookcase, as decisions on its composition will to one extent or another determine the architectural aspects of that part of the house. Of course, with this sort of level of preparing, you will want to get the opinion of an expert in home furnishing or architecture before making any final decisions.
One particular style of bookcases which is great for storing family heirlooms and generally old and valuable objects, or simply anything you happen to value a great deal, would have to be the barrister bookcase. These particular kinds of bookcases usually have a glass pane covering the front of each shelf, which can be easily slid out of the way to access the treasures within. Again, these are ideal for keeping important volumes and other valuable objects, not necessarily only books-they can shift as an alternative display cabinet.
One of the most practical kinds of bookcases would have to be the corner bookcase, which allows for optimal space saving in a home. Equally as practical would have to be the leaning bookcase, which is very effective at reducing the risk of tipping a bookcase over, as they lean against the wall behind them.
