Topple Bookshelf Rocks...Literally
October 17, 2007 by Lauren
This Topple bookshelf is a crazy new concept to add to the list of abstract bookshelves. At least those other wacky bookshelves aren't likely to fall over and crush me.
The Topple bookshelf's bottom is equipped with a 5-degree tilt, allowing it to rock. Julian Appelius proposed this idea, assuring us all that the bookshelf will hold your books level as long as you have enough of them to fill up a row.
Well, duh! I think we know that much, but the issue still remains: Why a rocking bookshelf? It seems needlessly reckless and completely pointless in the full sense of the word, but perhaps that is it's twisted appeal.
It seems that a tilted bookshelf would put an end to the classic problem of having your stacked books fall over, because they are leaned against each other. Feel free to check it out for yourself here, but I'd still say you buy it at your own risk.
