The trick is there is no trick. What you see is all you need. The bookcase is about functional space that celebrates a single material and elevates your materials reading and otherwise. Back it up against a sofa, use it along a wall, or float it.
For the most part, this is a sturdy, well made and nice looking bookcase that required assembly. I would have thought that wood toned plugs would have been included to hide the screws.. Christine. Santa Barbara, CA. Sun Apr 20 2025
