Creating a Home Library

Satara Mango Dakota Slim CD Tower

In the past, a personal library or book collection was an indicator of your social class and level. This was because books were so expensive and rare, and if you go back far enough, not everyone was even able to read! Now, there is a completely different picture. Books can be found almost everywhere and cover every genre or format possible, from children’s books to non-fiction and from recipes to atlases. They are widely accessible and can give people an idea about your interests and passions, so having your own library, no matter how big or specialised, is a great idea.

What’s in your library?

A library doesn’t have to revolve around books, even though that is the common interpretation. You can have a library of DVD’s or CD’s too, so depending on what you have, you will want a different style of bookcase to make sure you get the most use out your space. Take our Satara Mango Dakota Slim CD Tower, which is a beautiful piece of furniture but it won’t be very useful for books, and not even that great for DVD’s but it does give you plenty of storage for your CD’s and in a very neat and narrow way.

Satara Mango Dakota Corner Bookcase

To go with it, you might want to look at something like our Mandir Sheesham Low Hi-Fi Shelving Unit, which complements the tone beautiful and gives you easy access to your device no matter what you want to use it for. There’s even space to utilise on the top!

What if you have an unused corner? We have a solution for that too! You can use our Satara Mango Dakota Corner Bookcase to turn this dead space into something much more useful and appealing. Store your favourite books or collectibles on the shelves and enjoy some storage space as well. It’s a perfect combination.

Or maybe you want something a bit more traditional to show your favourite books and DVD’s. With both tall and short options, you might find the Satara Dark Mango Small Bookcase to be a

fantastic option – no more stretching to the top shelf for anyone looking for the favourite book or case. With so many options to choose from, you will be spoiled for choice.

What’s the best way to store and show it off?
