Our advice Buying Guide

A bamboo bookcase is something that everyone should have. Not all of us have huge book collections, but everyone needs a bookcase as this type of furniture is one of the few that’s versatile with its many uses. Apart from organizing books, bamboo bookcases can also store and display DVDs, records, decorative objects, and, yes, even trophies! With its many functions, any room could use at least one.

How to select the best design of a bamboo bookcase?

As you’re thinking of getting a bamboo bookcase, you need to decide on the unit’s purpose. As mentioned earlier, this type of furniture isn’t just for storing books. So, will you use it as a display cabinet for photographs, souvenirs, memorabilia, chinaware, and the like? If so, then you need adjustable shelves to give you flexibility on what to store. If you’ll be using the bookcase as well for storing items that you need daily like sunglasses, mobile phones, keys, etc., then a unit with some drawers or closed shelving will provide you with space for storing such items.

Are bamboo bookshelves strong and durable?

Although bamboo is naturally strong with its tensile strength of 28,000 lb./sq.in., its strength can be enhanced with lamination. Through lamination, the material is given another layer of protection against wear and tear. But, even without it, you can’t go wrong with a bamboo bookcase as it is made of a material that is stronger than steel. Steel's tensile strength is only 23,000lb./sq.in. So, if you want furniture that’s going to last you your entire life with its natural resilience, then you already know what you should get.

How to measure for a bookcase?

To get the right bamboo bookcase for your home, you need to measure the area where the case will be placed in. If there is a window that may be blocked, then make some adjustments to your measurements. Make sure you double check the floor space that is available in the room as well as the wall space. As soon as you have the dimensions written down, then you can proceed with identifying the ideal height, breadth, and length of your bamboo bookcase.

How to style a bamboo bookcase?

Of course, you’ll be adding books to your bookcase. To add interest, alternate the stacking of your books both vertically and horizontally. You can also use decorative items as bookends like stunning accessories or picture frames. They make excellent bookends, plus they help make the room feel stylish. Just make sure the objects you pick are heavy and sturdy enough that they can keep your books standing upright.

Give your bamboo bookcase an organized feel by gathering various collectibles. You will be able to create loose symmetry especially when you place carefully selected items in between stacks of books. If you have a square object in a shelf like a picture frame, mirror it using an item with a similar size and shape on the opposite side.
