Books shelving oneanother in Lenin Bookshelf design

By Gabriel Alobo /Jun 30 2008

The idea for this design had to have been born in a eureka moment of pure improvisational genius. Designing a fragmented bookshelf concept where the individual shelves are arranged in free form is clever enough, but then they added the icing with the bookshelves being 'books'. How nice is that? How awe filled is that creative genius? They say genius in retrospect is common sense, but how many people can honestly claim that they would've thought of that? Praises aside, the construction of the bookshelves is done with metal, to give sturdy support, and then covered with the volumes of Lenin's books to give its appearance. Also, the shelving books can be removed and read, so one doesn't have to sacrifice precious books in making the shelves. I assume others will follow suit and make similar shelves out their favorite volumes and books. One thing is for sure, those who see any of these book bookshelves will certainly admire the ingenuity behind them.
