Bookshelf, English: Bookshelf, in our sense, refers to the equipment that people use to put books in a broad sense. Because of their different shapes and structures, there are other names, such as bookcase, bookcase and so on. It is a common appliance in our life.

Bookshelf size

The size of bookcase includes not only the external width and height, but also the internal bookcase size, that is, the depth (thickness) of bookcase shelf, the height of partition, the height of drawer and other local dimensions.

Bookcase width: Generally, the width of two bookcases is between 50 and 65cm, and the width of three bookcases and four bookcases varies from 1/2 to 1 times. The width of individual corner bookcases and large bookcases can reach more than one meter to two meters.

Height of bookcase: The maximum height of bookcase is based on the principle that adults can reach the books on the top partition. For example, the height of two bookcases generally ranges from 120cm to 2 10cm. If it is an indomitable bookcase with a particularly large collection space, the size of bookcase can reach three meters.

Depth (thickness) of bookcases: According to the current general book specifications, the depth of modern bookcases is designed to be 28cm to 35cm, which can meet the needs of most people.

Bookshelf design

First, irregular design

Is to let the design of bookcases (also known as bookshelves or whole bookcases) give full play to imagination.

Let your patchwork create all kinds of exquisite shapes, which can not only meet the various functions of multifunctional bookcases (also known as bookshelves or whole bookcases), but also give landscaping and decoration to the home environment. Second, symmetrical design

Is to make the appearance of bookcases (also known as bookshelves or whole bookcases) symmetrical. This kind of design is mainly applied to multi-purpose bookcases (also known as bookshelves or integrated bookcases) in the home environment. For example, let the TV cabinet and bookcase (also known as bookshelf or whole bookcase) be used together or combined with computer desk. This kind of design can make people feel quiet and relaxed when the home environment is relatively narrow and the interior decoration is already rich. After meeting the multi-functional needs, it can make full use of the effective space and reduce the fatigue of space decoration.

Bookshelf purchase skills

1, choose the size according to the space.

According to your own space,

Choose one, two or three groups of bookcases and arrange them in a zigzag, L or U shape as required. If the bookcase is still used for partial display, placing photo frames, photo albums, paintings or artworks, etc., it is also necessary to choose a slightly thicker bookcase. Tip: The width of the bookcase is closely related to how many items can be stored. If the books at home are different in size and length, it is best to choose a bookcase with adjustable partitions, so that large books can be placed in an extended compartment. Due to the stress, the longest partition of the bookcase should not exceed 90 cm, otherwise it will easily bend and deform over time. In addition, the partition also needs to be thickened, preferably between 2.5 and 3.5 cm.

2, the depth and height are suitable and easy to take.

Some consumers think that choosing a deep bookcase can accommodate more books, but choosing a bookcase that is too deep will cause trouble in taking and placing books. In addition, the height of bookcases is also a factor to be considered. Some bookcases are very high and seem to have a large storage space.

It is also very stylish, but it is necessary to consider whether it is convenient for the top of the bookcase to take items. Shelf placement

First of all, we should consider coordinating with other indoor furniture and furnishings. If you live in a traditional old house and the furniture is old-fashioned, it is best to put beautifully decorated sets of books, classical works and series of books with the same specifications in obvious places.

Set up a few small artworks with simple shapes and strong colors. If it is a new type of building or furniture, please choose some lively and fresh works of art that are abstract in form and reflect the characteristics of the times to beautify it. When displaying several items, we should first determine a focus, that is, which item in the collection should be highlighted most, and then arrange it accordingly. If you put in a big item, you should ensure its "breathing" space. When it is necessary to highlight the color of an article, it can be lined with paper or decorative cloth with different tones. If there is suitable space in the bookshelf, you can also put paintings or photos, and you can also decorate them with drawing plates.

This principle should also be embodied in the form, structure and color of display. The items placed should be dense and well-organized, leaving room for appreciation. Books placed vertically should be as close to the height of the partition as possible, while books placed horizontally should leave a certain space, so as to avoid different lengths, uneven level. Some artworks and other trinkets should leave a certain gap around them.

This is to emphasize its importance, and any mess will detract from the charm of itself and adjacent items.
