No More Sitting on Books
Yeh! For now the books will have boards between them and the butt! The person shall be able to sit down without fear of bad bindings! Without fear of dusty pages ruining their new suit! I say to thee! This is a chair that’s also a bookcase. It is called Chair Bookcase Bookcase Chair, and it means business! It means so much business that it comes in more than one wood: Walnut, Birch, and CDX Ply.
Get your seat and sit in it forever. No need to get up! Finish one book and start the other. It can hold more than 400 paperbacks for cripes sakes. And the seat allows for several different adjustments for comfort. Your comfort – you, the real-life book reader. It’s all for your preservation of the art.

very innovative design, and great for book lover, but maybe this is already outdated by all people reading books on tablets, no need? i read all books now digital, no space in tokyo for so many books, hehe

I like it. Its a good use of space. I think the challenge with this piece is to make it comfortable to sit in.

I could use more storage space for my books. I just wonder how comfortable the seating is. And who sits on their books in the first place, anyway?

Not as nice as this from 2007

Great design for couch potatoes. Doesn’t seems comfortable to sit on though.
