If you often look at home decoration, you will definitely find that more and more families are beginning to pay attention to the reading and learning atmosphere at home. Even the living room is no longer centered on the TV. Instead, it is more inclined to replace the TV wall with a bookshelf wall to create a family "library". Such a living room has the functions of reading, writing, meeting and chatting, and it has a lot of bookish atmosphere, and it is easy to create an atmosphere of love for learning and reading among family members. For example, like this:

The entire wall is filled with books, which gives a sense of security at first glance. The living room is also a very suitable space to create a reading area. With a sofa, you can read as long as you want.

However, for many small apartments or small spaces, it is not realistic to build a whole wall of books. It is good enough to store basic daily necessities! So how can small apartments store books?

1

Storage location: A place within easy reach for reading and studying

Where is the best place to put books? It depends on how your family uses it. If your family is used to reading in the living room and your children are used to doing homework in the dining room, then it is appropriate to create a book storage area in the living room.

And if your child likes to study in his own room, then the best area for storage is his own bedroom.

The most direct benefit of having books readily available at home is that it helps children fall in love with reading. At the same time, the collection of books at home can also add a lot of atmosphere and book fragrance to the home.

Placement: Not suitable for placing too high

Many people build book walls from the bottom to the top, but in fact the top storage compartment is not suitable for placing books because it is not easy to get. Imagine that every time you need to move a chair or a ladder to get>

If the entire wall is made into a storage cabinet, then the most suitable position for taking things can be made into a book storage grid, covered with a glass sliding door. It not only looks bright and clean but also is not easy to accumulate dust, and can preserve books well.

Making the most of the aisles: putting waste space to good use

If you don't have a suitable wall at home, you can consider the book wall solution of "maximizing the use of the corridor". This will not only recover the wasted corridor area, but also add a different atmosphere to the home.

For example, a long and narrow corridor like this is of no use except for decoration. One side can be made into a book storage wall and a few partitions can be installed. However, it is not suitable to place too many books, otherwise it will be easy for them to fall when people go in and out.

Like this, you can divide one side of the wall into two parts, hang decorative paintings on the upper part to decorate the blank wall, and make the lower part into a low cabinet to store books.

Local area: Appropriate storage of books

If the space is not big enough, you can also use part of the wall to create a book wall, adhering to the principle of "put it on the wall if possible", which will give it a perfect literary feel. But remember not to put too much books, otherwise it will easily fall off. So what are the main areas like this?

First: The wall of the office area

For example, you can use storage partitions on the walls of the study and office area to store books and place some books that you often see.

Second, the wall of the bedroom area

Some people will create an office area in the bedroom, and it would be great to use the wall for storage.

Or like this, you can create a built-in office area by combining it with a wardrobe. It will not take up any extra space and is also a relatively innovative design.

If you have the habit of reading before bed, you might as well use this book storage rack to place basic bedtime reading materials. You can reach out and take them, and you don’t have to get up from bed anymore!

Third: Restaurant reading area

The restaurant is also a relatively spacious public interactive area, so if there is a wall here, it can be used to create a space that integrates dining, studying, and reading.

Combine the design with the wall next to the door and let books become a decoration in your home!

Use partitions or iron plates to make invisible bookshelves and use them for partial book storage on the wall.

Low cabinet storage: sweet or salty

Open bookshelves are not very friendly to books. Books are prone to moisture and deformation after being left there for a long time. If it is a favorite book, it is best to put it in a bookcase. If there is not enough space for a large bookcase, then a low cabinet will also work!

Any blank wall can be used as a low cabinet to store books.

Low cabinets are also a great way to partition small spaces. I recommend using open low cabinets as bookcases, as they require less space and can be used safely even if you are renting a house.

The wall under the windowsill can be fully utilized by using a low cabinet for storage. The low cabinet is really a practical piece of furniture that can create an atmosphere. It can be used to store books, store items, or place children's toys, making the atmosphere of life more intense.
