Books, Books On The Wall.
I just love these invisible floating bookcases. They turn ordinary books and their pretty spines (which, I already love) and turns them into a kind of wall sculpture that seems to defy gravity. I found a bunch of different versions online which are quite affordable, and just had to share.
Invisible Floating Bookcases from Barnes & Noble.
I also quite like the Flying Vee Shelves from DWR;and the Cadman Spine Bookcase from West Elm.

wow!! the books really look like they are floating!! So cool!
Very cool as long as you never plan on reading them - what a PITA to get to any but the top book.
I was just browsing and found the Spine Book Tower for only 99.00 at Overstock:

Books are the one thing I really own in excess, so I welcome any idea that will allow them to do double-duty as decoration. I even use a giant bookshelf as my bed's headboard! Thanks for the lovely ideas.
The floating shelves are very cool.
wow, nice roundup!! I'd like to mention this if you don't mind!
Sure, Johnny! :)
ARE VERY COOL! The books themselves are a beautiful decor, and floating on the walls!

I love these! I have books stacked all over my place and I really needed bookcases. I am an artist and I really love the look...they look like art!
I know what you mean about the gloom in SF. I use to live there and it can be quite cold.
i have been drooling after these kinds of shelves for months now, uncertain of how to use them in my place. but with your mix of photos, the inspiration is kicking in!! thanks for that (:
Floating books on the walls is very fantastic idea.

These are so cool! Perfect solution for my complete lack of storage, i may have to blog if you don't mind... :)
Loving your entire blog BTW!
wowo my best girlfriend is a writer and reader of many book I MUST tell her about this.
I bought some the second you posted them to your blog, and thanks to B&N 2-day free shipping, they're already installed. I can't stop looking at them. It's magic, I tell you. Furthermore, it's actually very easy to pull books from the middle without rearranging them all.
