What’s Your Angle: Exclusive Shelves From Lago Style

<br/><p>Just when we thought we’d noticed each and every which way a bookshelf could be created, Daniele Lago had to go and show us anything we’d never ever laid eyes on ahead of, even even though she 1st developed it a decade ago.  The Tangram shelf system is, in Lago’s words, “a square in 6 pieces combined with imagination to make new shapes come to life.”  Named after a well-liked, classic Chinese game in which players slide 6 captive wooden pieces about inside a square, trying to make them match completely together like puzzle pieces, the unit immediately calls to mind a visual nod to the game.  Lago chose to create the piece from chipboard, seal the edges and cover the back in faux leather for a textured effect, but really, the most compelling visual aspect of the piece is its unending series of angle following angle.  Presented in black, white and a natural finish, these unique shelves provide a clean yet complex modern take on the standard bookshelf, casting half of almost everything in their clutches at a 45-degree tilt.  Endlessly configured into a myriad of shapes and sizes, the Tangram is an adaptive and special shelf series with more than just a single point to make.</p><br/><br/><img alt="picture 5070 What’s Your Angle: Exclusive Shelves From Lago Style amazing ideas " height="600" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/picture-5070.jpg" title="What’s Your Angle: Exclusive Shelves From Lago Style amazing ideas " width="600" /><br/><br/><img alt="tangram What’s Your Angle: Exclusive Shelves From Lago Style amazing ideas " height="298" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/tangram.jpg" title="What’s Your Angle: Exclusive Shelves From Lago Style amazing ideas " width="600" /><br/><br/><p>Photo credits: Lago</p><br/><p>The post What’s Your Angle: Distinctive Shelves from Lago Style </p><br/><p>

The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors

<br/><p>Despite the fact that bookshelves are, sadly, becoming something of a nostalgia piece in the increasingly digital globe in which we reside, amongst furniture enthusiasts, they’ll constantly be as considerably a car for artistic expression as a furnishing with a certain function.  We’ve featured some outlandish shelving ideas more than the years, so we’re even far more delighted when we run across a style that somehow blends subtlety with outrageousness in equal measure.  When images of funky 3D shelves like these created by Monika Juhasz run across our desks, we can’t support but note the restrained creativity of their colors and form — bright but tempered, uneven but symmetrical.  The “qubicle,” as it’s known as, is a notion piece featuring angular wall-mounted modular shelves that are interchangeable yet cohesive in their brash but still contained appearance.  Presented in a duo of contrasting color families, qubicles are produced, theoretically, in sets of 3 and can be combined to make a larger modular rectangle or square.  Hung from a simple bracket system, each and every cube (qube?) measures 10″ x 10″ x 6″ on its exterior, with an 8″ x 8″ x 6″ interior space to fill with books, tchotchkes and more.  Satisfying both the left and correct sides of our brains, we appreciate the marriage of two opposites: the wild and undefined with the regimented and reputable.</p><br/><img alt="qubicles modular shelves The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors amazing ideas " height="342" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/qubicles-modular-shelves.jpg" title="The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors amazing ideas " width="600" /><br/><br/><img alt="qubicles The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors amazing ideas " height="342" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/qubicles.jpg" title="The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors amazing ideas " width="600" /><br/><br/><img alt="qubicles The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors amazing ideas " height="342" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/qubicles_.jpg" title="The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors amazing ideas " width="600" /><br/><br/><img alt="qubicles The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors amazing ideas " height="342" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/qubicles__.jpg" title="The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves In Bold, Bright Colors amazing ideas " width="600" /><br/><p>Photo credits: Quirky.com</p><br/><p>The post The Qubicle: Funky 3D Shelves in Bold, Bright Colors </p><br/><p>
