Using your books for decoration when you aren't reading them

Firstly, the Bibliochaise by nobodyandco in Italy.
A chair wrapped in '5 linear metres of bookspace'. Apparently not too uncomfortable either.


Then, again for those literary lovers out there we have a choice of two 'invisible bookshelves':

One for holding books with the spines vertical; the Sticklebook design uses a comb-like method to hold the books (and presumably pinch the pages and covers a bit).


Then for those of us wanting a possibly more trustworthy bookshelf, there's Singuiler's design
which uses a simple brace.


Cool ideas. Obviously of lot of people like us who, despite the Internet, still really like their books.
