4 Fab Bookcases That Take Up Little Room

Short on floor space? Here are four fabulous bookcases that take up very little room.

DESIGN WISE | Those of us living in condos and townhomes are forever on the lookout for ways to save on space. One way to do this where books are concerned is to store them horizontally in a vertical bookcase that climbs up the wall rather than in one with a more conventional shape that gobbles up a larger floor area.

Vertical spine book towers can hold lots of books in a vertical stack. Here are four of our favourite models.

Sapien, Design Within Reach ($198)

Array Book Tower, CB2 ($229)

Spine Style, Southern Enterprises ($108)

Lack Wall Unit, IKEA ($60)
