Modern Bookshelves: 25 Very Creative Designs
We used to think that the emergence of the Internet will make books obselete. However, since this has not been the case, we therefore continue to need bookshelves to store our collection of books. In this roundup, we will showcase the 25 modern bookshelves, which are not only creative and interesting but very functional as well.
01- Equation Bookshelf
‘Equation Bookshelf’ is a simple idea of to divide things in priority order… put together the books that you need immediately or more important between (parentheses)! Set others between [square brackets] and {braces}.

Books may be stored on both sides of the bookcase with a cave crawlspace in between.

07- Applied Literature
From Source: “The Hübler is a creation using concrete – and books with a ‘concrete’ history – in various planimetrical surfaces. The absence of the books, due to their various dimensions, form different shapes of various depths and heights. The result concrete structure will not have a final shape, because, by using it, visitors can change the books or remove them.”
