Types of bookshelves

There are a number of different types of bookshelves commonly found in New Zealand that you can consider for your home.

Modular shelving

This elegant minimalist design is perfect for modern homes. Not only does it work well as a bookshelf, but you can also place some lovely showpieces to add to its charm.

Leaning bookcase

This interesting style is available in multiple sizes. The overall frame has a tilted look, although the shelves are perfectly straight once placed against the wall at the right angle. This multifunctional bookshelf can bring interest and personality to a space and is typically smaller in size making it ideal for smaller spaces.

Corner bookcase

These shelves were designed to maximise the space in any room. These shelves fit perfectly into the corners of the room, giving you access to more functional space. They come in a range of styles and materials to meet your specific design needs.

The advantages of high-quality bookshelves

There are many advantages to choosing high-quality bookshelves for your home in New Zealand. High-quality bookshelves use premium materials, which typically means more prestigious species of wood which are robust and aesthetically refined. They’ll also be designed in a precise way, maximising their storage capacity so you can get the most out of them. High-quality bookshelves are also more likely to have designer traits, making them more unique and captivating in a space. They give you a tremendous opportunity to enhance your interior design and a lot of versatility too.

How to choose a bookshelf that's right for you

Knowing exactly what you need to store is an important first step in deciding what bookshelf will work best for you. This means not only thinking about what you have now but also trying to estimate how many possessions you are likely to gain in the near future. The amount of space you have available is also another important practical consideration to keep in mind. This also includes knowing how it will look in the space in terms of balance which means getting the measuring tape out in order to properly visualise it. Aesthetics comes into play, choosing something that complements the interior design of your home. Some like to keep things cohesive with existing furniture like wall units but ultimately this is a personal choice.
