How to choose the right rack?
Choosing the right bookcase can depend on many factors, such as available space, interior style, amount of books, budget, and aesthetic preferences. Remember that the choice of bookshelf depends on your individual preferences and needs. It’s a good idea to take the time to think about your options and compare the models available before making a final decision. Here are some steps that can help you make the right choice:
- Determine the available space: Think about how much space you can devote to the rack. Measuring the exact dimensions of the space will help to avoid fitting problems.
- Number of books: Think about how many books you want to store on the bookcase. If you have a large collection, you may need a larger bookcase or several smaller ones. Do you want to have books exposed and you do not like the shelves? Bet on glass showcases that will be like an original bookcase!
- Interior Style: Match the bookcase to the style of the interior. There are many different types of racks, from classic wooden to modern metal. Make sure that the bookcase will blend in with the rest of the décor.
- Functionality: Consider whether the bookcase will also serve other functions in addition to storing books, such as a place for decorations or storing other items.
- Material: Choose a shelving material that suits your preferences and needs. Our shelves are made of solid oak wood and metal, which makes the furniture can be used for many years.
- Size and number of shelves: Pay attention to the number of shelves and their height. Make sure that the bookcase has the right number of shelves for storing books of different sizes. Some racks have height-adjustable shelves.
- Personalization: Want to change your bookcase in terms of dimensions, color or equipment? You can also change parameters such as the number of drawers or shelves. All you have to do is write to us about the changes you want to make and we will make your individual rack to order!

Modern bookcase – how to decorate it?
Decorating a modern bookcase can help create an attractive and functional element of interior design. A bookcase is not only about storing books – below you will find all sorts of inspirations for arranging a bookshelf and more. Here are some ideas on how to do it:
- Books: Of course, the main element of the bookcase is books. You can arrange them both vertically and horizontally to add a touch of variety. You can also play with cover colors to create an interesting visual effect.
- Decorative items: Place decorative items such as figurines, vases, sculptures, souvenirs, or globes on the bookcase. These are additional elements that can add character and personality to the bookcase.
- Plants: Houseplants can add freshness and life to your bookcase. Small succulents, orchids or pots of green plants fit perfectly into modern décor.
- Photo frames: Placing photo frames on a bookcase can add a personal touch and blend in wonderfully with the arrangement. You can choose family, travel or artistic photos.
- Lights & Lighting: If the bookcase has shelves with a protruding front, you can add small table lights or LED strips to emphasize the bookcase and create interesting lighting effects.
- Baskets and containers: Use stylish baskets or containers to store smaller items that don’t necessarily need to be in plain sight. This helps to maintain the order and aesthetic appearance of the bookcase, especially in the child’s room, where toys rule.
- Collections and hobbies: If you have any collections or hobbies that you would like to showcase, a bookcase may be the perfect place for it. It can be a collection of minerals, figurines, musical instruments, etc. Open shelves will allow you to enjoy your favorite items every day.
- The rule of three: When decorating a bookcase, it is worth using the principle of three, i.e. grouping objects or products in threes, which is aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
