Bookcase, bookshelf or shelving unit?
Not sure what the difference is between a bookcase, a bookshelf or a shelving unit?
-
A bookcase generally refers to a freestanding piece with multiple shelves
-
A bookshelf can describe an individual shelf or a complete unit.
-
A shelving unit is a broader term for furniture you use to store and display books, artwork and decorative pieces.
In practice the names often overlap so it’s best to focus on size, configuration and the amount of storage your room needs during your search.
Open or closed shelving?
Open shelving units
Open shelves allow you to put your favourite pieces on display and can help your room feel lighter and more spacious. They also give you the freedom to restyle your shelves as your collections or style preferences change.
Closed shelving furniture
Closed shelves are better at keeping clutter and mess out of sight. It also helps keep dust from settling on your belongings.
For the best of both, choose a bookcase that pairs open shelving with cupboards below, giving you space to display favourite pieces, hide everyday clutter and complement your wider living furniture collection.
