Shelves

Shelves are pieces of furniture a house simply cannot go without as they enable you to store your items easily, making the most of the available space. Shelves, for example, can be placed in the kitchen to enhance a wall, placing on them cooking accessories and utensils. But shelves are also perfect in the living area, where you can fill them with your favourite books, carefully placed next to one another, with other small items of various kind or with souvenirs from your past trips to have the memory of your happiest moments right next to you. Shelves can furthermore also be placed in the bedroom, to hold and display objects recalling intimacy and your private life: think of a jewellery box, a memento of your wedding day, or knick-knacks that are either valuable or precious to you for the memories they evoke. Finally, shelves are often used in children's bedrooms too, to tidily store dolls, toys, and the various bits and pieces children love. Your study or home office is another room that can benefit from the presence of shelves, extremely useful to store document binders, folders, and everything bureaucracy calls for as working from home requires great organization. Shelves therefore become a design solution, essential in order to keep your home office tidy and organized. Dresser organizers are another furnishing solutions that are indispensable in most houses. Featuring great versatility, they are suitable as containers for just about anything and are therefore perfect in any corner of the house, fitting into any environment and allowing you to store any kind of object. In fact, in the bedroom they will hold personal items such as jewellery while in the bathroom they can contain items related to personal cleaning and body care like shower gels, shampoos, hairbrush, and body creams.

An indispensable type of dresser organizer for women is that which can contain make-up. Lipstick, mascara, nail polish, eyeliner, powder, pencils, foundation – these are all small items that need a container which allows you to store them but at the same time find them quickly when you need to use them. Organizers of this type are also used in the kitchen where they contain cooking tools and utensils. It is not by chance, therefore, that dresser organizers are sometimes called pocket emptiers; rather, it is because of the fact they can contain just about anything. Even in the children's room the presence of a dresser organizer is useful to store all their trinkets and toys, learning from an early age the importance of organization and tidiness. Dresser organizers are also very popular in the living room, where they can hold your favourite CDs as well as magazines to read in a moment of peace and quiet. For those who work from home, furthermore, these organizers are essential to neatly store everything that has to do with work like paper clips, pencils, pens, staplers, mini calculators, and post-its. Larger organizers can also be placed on a desk or on a shelf to be used as containers for documents. Shelves and dresser organizers have been known since ancient times. Organizers, for example, date back to the ancient Egyptians, and many caskets containing jewellery, fabric, cosmetics, and other items were found in the pharaohs’ tombs.

Floating Shelves Selection

Among the Greeks and Romans, on the other hand, popular organizers were made in wood or bronze and decorated with precious stones. In the Middle Ages organizers became minimal due to the fact that this was a period dominated by the Church and spirituality in general, which identified art with beauty and beauty with sin. With the Baroque era, however, the situation was reversed as the Age called for beauty and outward appearance to prevail on spirituality. Art therefore became lavish, excessive, and eccentric; in organizers, just like in any other artistic and architectural expression, it was clear that the Baroque wanted to be noticed for its eccentricity and uniqueness. With the passage of time the shapes of organizers has evolved as well as the materials used to build them, and today we can purchase dresser organizers in wood, plastic, steel, and stone. The shape is usually square, but the choice of colours is great. Even shelves have evolved over time. In the 1400s shelves were a feature of any kind of house, a simple rectangular wooden plank anchored to the wall. It was poorly decorated and was not seen as a decoration or enhancement but rather as a simple functional tool to support objects.

 

In the Renaissance period but especially in the Baroque era, there was an explosion of artistic and decorative elements, and, in the 1600s, shelves stop being simple planks anchored to the wall and become a famous and popular piece of furniture due to the precious materials used for the inlays and decorations added onto it. In the 1700s, thanks to King Louis XV, shelves take on rounded and sinuous lines, becoming elegant and eccentric. Today, however, shelves in peculiar shapes are not used very much: people prefer to focus on lines that are elegant but also minimalist and essential. Shelves are back to being mere supports anchored to the walls, yet made in sophisticated materials and featuring a modern style and shape. Shelves and organizers are a clear indication of the style of the room you place them in, and must therefore be chosen carefully. These design solutions are sure to meet your every need as they are available in various shapes, makes, and colours. From the most innovative geometric shapes to more classical lines, in plastic, wood, or steel – whatever shelf or organizer you are looking for, your wish will be granted on LoveTheSign. Modern, elegant and essential – these three adjectives perfectly describe the shelves proposed by Woud, a Danish company that is known for the originality of its design and the functionality of its products.

Fold 

The """"Fold"""" model is a particular shelf in an asymmetrical shape; more specifically, it features two horizontal shelves joined together by another plank placed diagonally. Such a shape recalls the wings of a seagull, and its minimalist style makes it ideal for any room of the house. Fully made in metal, it is 86.2 cm tall and 22.5 cm wide, and available both in white and in black. As mentioned above, the """"Fold"""" shelf is suitable for any environment but it is perfect in the living area, where you can use it to display your favourite books or CDs. However, """"Fold"""" can fit perfectly even in a studio or office, holding all your documents, folders, and anything you need to work from home.

Coupè

This Danish company also offers other shelf models such as """"Coupè"""", available in a vertical, rectangular, and horizontal version. Whatever option you choose, this shelf is made in steel and features a minimalist style as it consists of smooth shelf space and an empty frame, displaying the metal sides of the same. The vertical version has six shelves and it is 103 cm tall, 37 cm wide and 13.5 cm deep. The rectangular version has three supporting surfaces and it is 56 cm tall, 53 cm wide and 13.5 cm deep.

All three versions of """"Coupè"""" are available both in black and in white, and are suitable for any room. In the kitchen or living room, for example, these shelves are perfect to hold frames or small vases with flowers, while in the bathroom they can keep all the necessary items for personal hygiene in perfect order. Those who prefer the elegance and warmth that wooden furniture can transmit cannot but appreciate the shelves by We do Wood, a Danish company specializing in the production of wooden design pieces. Its special feature is the attention to the environment: in fact, We do Wood’s products are all made with sustainable materials like Moso bamboo. This is a type of wood that grows every four years and its fast growth means it doesn’t use up much oxygen.

SJ

The shelf """"SJ"""", available in a medium and large version, is modern and refined. It consists of a plank of Moso bamboo anchored to the wall and on which containers in different geometric shapes rest, almost as if they were suspended. The containers are peculiar not just for their shape but for the inside as well, as each one features a different colour. The medium version of """"SJ"""" includes three containers while the large one has four. These shelves can fit into any domestic environment, allowing you to store items but also to display frames and knick-knacks.

This kind of structure gives it a double role: you can in fact place the jars and bottles of various common ingredients such as salt, pepper, oil, and vinegar on the top shelf while you can hang your dishcloths from the rod, or even cutlery and ladles. Another good idea is to hang breakfast mugs on the rod, perhaps colourful ones to create a cheerful effect.
