Thursday Tip #7- Editing a bookcase

Control your bookcase

If you're like me this is easier said than done.  I don't like a bookcase to look too edited, but grouping objects and books is a must.  I won't go so far as to suggest covering books with the same colour paper  or lining them up by colour as I've seen in some magazines.  

What works in his arrangement ?
  • the bookcase has been treated as an accent wall by painting the back a beautiful blue
  • sculptural objects are massed and are  the same colour - white- which shows against the blue
  • there's a range of objects including books, vases, photos and found objects
  • the books have been sorted by height
  • books are placed both horizontally and vertically
If you wanted to further edit this arrangement you could consider:
  • removing the photos; they are lost in the display
  • if you are arranging books horizontally, keep to that, don't start to stack vertically on top of the horizontal ones; stacking some horizontally and some vertically on the same shelf works
  • don't add a piece of sculpture on top of a books (see bowl) , this is sculptural enough to display alone and gets lost otherwise.
  • if you have an arrangement of vases, bottles etc.  don't add a picture behind it- it gets lost.
 From one extreme to the next...


 Quiet and unobtrusive, this bookcase provides a lovely backdrop for the two chairs grouped in front of it.  This is a room I would like to sit in .

This is a whole other way of  organizing a bookcase.  While is is ordered, it has a very vibrant almost chaotic feel to it.  It has way too much visual energy for my taste, but there's someone who loves it.
