The beauty of a bookshelf

The best place for a bookcase in your home

A bookcase is the most versatile piece of furniture you can own. Positioned in the bedroom, office, hallway, living room or dining room, the bookcase offers vital extra space and makes a beautiful complement to the rest of your decor. Of course, you can store books in a bookcase, but you can also use them as storage, a display case, a home for plants, a place for toys and much more.

How to use a bookshelf as a room divider

A bookshelf is a stylish way to divide or create different zones within a room. If your children share a room, the bookshelf can be a divider to offer them each personal space. A bookshelf within an open-plan living/dining room can help you create designated zones. Or, you can use a bookcase to create a study in the corner of a larger space.

Décor and homewares to add to your bookshelf

Accessorising your bookshelf with homewares and decor is a fabulous way to add style to a room. All Mocka styles are versatile enough to suit a combination of books and decor or to use entirely as a showcase. The Porto Bookcase has the minimalist style of an industrial bookshelf with clean lines, metal framing and open ends. Style with plants, pottery, artwork and woven baskets for a fresh aesthetic that is right on trend.

Pairing your contemporary bookshelf with home decor

Another wonderful thing about a Mocka bookcase is that they are so easy to pair with the rest of your furniture. Our in-house design team has created a collection featuring wood-look veneers, versatile white essentials and powder-coated metal framing to blend effortlessly with existing furniture. A bookshelf or bookcase can make an ideal complement to bedheads, bedside tables, coffee tables, dining tables and more.

The perfect storage solution and display cabinet

Designs like MischaPortoEdenBentley and Milton, make it easy for you to use your bookcase for both storage and as a display shelf. Eden and Bentley designs are also available in three sizes to perfectly suit your space. Combining open shelves and drawers, cabinets or cubes, these styles allow you to showcase the items you want in full view and tuck away the items you don’t. Place your treasured photo frames, favourite ornaments and beloved plants on the shelves and file away the paperwork, chargers, placemats and cables.

Pairing your bookshelf with living room furniture

Choose from contemporary, coastal and Scandi-style bookshelves to coordinate with your living room coffee tablesside tables or entertainment unit. The elegant Eden Bookshelf makes a beautiful complement to any contemporary living space, featuring a premium oak-look veneer, solid wood tubular frame and minimalist Scandinavian design. For a fresh coastal feel, try the bright white/natural combination of the Sadie Six Cube Unit. Or, for warmth and style, consider the Brixton Bookcase for an elegant statement piece.

Get organised with a bookshelf in your home office

A multi-shelf bookcase in your home office will help you get organised to work from home. Place heavier items toward the bottom and add baskets and cubes if needed. File papers and accessories in the drawers and electrical gadgets behind cabinet doors. We recommend keeping your most frequently accessed books and folders within easy reach in a small bookshelf and placing those rarely used above and below.

Enhancing your home library with a timeless bookshelf

A great bookshelf makes your house feel like a home. With a good selection on display, you can pull out some inspiration whenever you need it and offer your guests something to browse through while waiting. Choose from horizontally oriented or vertically oriented to suit your desired spaces. Consider a style with adjustable shelves for a wide collection of different-sized books to ensure a perfect fit.

Bookcase storage solutions for small rooms

Designed with smaller spaces in mind, our multi-tier bookshelves and shelving units offer you the freedom of storage with only minimal floor space. Vertically oriented corner shelves and ladder shelves provide you with multiple tiers of shelving.

The Eden and Porto Corner Shelves sit snug in the corner of your room, making use of every bit of space and the ladder bookshelf leans back on the wall in the living room, bedroom or office. But for maximum space-saving, we recommend floating shelves, which don’t require any floor space at all and can be applied to most areas of the home. A great set of wall shelves can function as a bookcase, display case or storage.

The perfect bookshelf for a kids’ bedroom

Small bookcases and horizontally oriented shelving units are ideal for children as they can easily access all the tiers. The Sadie Six Cube Unit can work beautifully in bedrooms as a versatile bookshelf/storage shelf unit, offering space for books and cubes for toys and games.

Frequently asked questions

Here are some of the most common questions.

A timeless bookcase has closed ends and is designed to sit on the floor. Bookshelves have open ends and are usually attached to the wall. A Bookshelf makes a great plant stand display adding greenery into your home.
The best height for a bookshelf depends on where you will use it. The bookshelf should be lower in a children’s room or nursery, but there are many configurations to choose from. Measure your area carefully and read the online specifications. And, of course, if you need assistance, the Mocka Customer Service is always happy to offer advice.
