Avi's Shelf

Today's shelf is Avi's. He's currently working on his thesis about war (no kidding), and lives in a cute and rather small studio in Paris. His flat is filled with books, so to keep a livable space the bookshelf is directly IN the wall, under the roof. Clever !

Tan's Shelf

Happy new year everyone !
Let's kick-start with a really cool shelf : Tan's shoes shelf. I've always wanted to put my shoes in some kind of display, instead of a big pile hidden in some cupboard. Well, Tan did it and it rocks.
