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.

Furniture for your living room

Mocka Furniture has all the latest trends in living room furniture at affordable prices you won’t find in-store. Designed in-house in Australia, our furniture collection is expertly crafted, easy to assemble and made from high-quality materials. Shop for coffee tables, side tables, entertainment units, consoles, mirrors and everything else you need to create a living room you love returning home to.

Make a wishlist of favourite items or purchase a gift card for a loved one. With a warranty on furniture and delivery to most postcodes in Australia, it’s the easiest way to create the home of your dreams.

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 mix of books and decor or to use entirely as a showcase. The Porto design has the minimalist look of an industrial bookshelf with clean lines, metal framing and open ends. Style with plants, pottery, artwork and woven baskets for a fresh look that is right on trend.

Denham Bookcase

Pairing bookshelves with your home decor

Another wonderful thing about Mocka bookcases 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. Bookcases make an ideal complement to bedheads, bedside tables, coffee tables, dining tables and more.

The perfect storage solution and display cabinet

Designs like Mischa, Porto, Maya, Milton, Lunamake it easy for you to use your bookcase for both storage and a display shelf. 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 to living room furniture, like the coffee table

Choose from contemporary, boho and natural style bookshelves to coordinate with your living room coffee tables, side tables or entertainment unit. The elegant Mischa makes a beautiful complement to any contemporary living space, featuring a gorgeous oak-look veneer, solid wood legs, and rich midnight-blue drawers. For a fresh coastal feel, try the bright white/natural combination of the Sadie cube unit. Or, for warmth and style, consider the Denham for an elegant statement piece.

Maya Ladder

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 and placing those rarely used above and below.

Home library ideas

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.

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 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 any 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 any area of the home. A great set of wall shelves can function as a bookcase, display case or storage.

Bookshelves for kids’ bedrooms

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

FAQ’s:

What is the difference between a bookshelf and a bookcase?

A traditional 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 the perfect plant stand because it allows you to view the plant from all angles.

What is the height of a standard bookshelf?

The best height for a bookshelf depends on where you will use it. Obviously, 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.
