If you want a big bookshelf but don’t really have a comfortable place to sit and read, one designer has the answer.
Sure you can sit in a chair or lay on your bed, but if you demand a more comfortable place to lounge, why not sit in the bookshelf? Yes, in.


Designer Sakura Adachi’s CAVE bookshelf allows you to do just that. So take a book off the shelf and hideaway and get cozy inside it. Here’s the official description of CAVE:
In urban life, there seems to be a common understanding that people tend to consciously or subconsciously become wary of strangers surrounding them. They are always balancing a certain level of privacy with others. A bookcase CAVE provides a private reading space within its form. As a seat height is just above the floor, CAVE gives a feeling of hiding from others standing around it. Books can be stored on both sides. Therefore, CAVE can also functions as a partition of a room.


Check out the CAVE on Adachi’s official website. There’s even a pet’s CAVE design.
