Bedroom: Recessed Shelving Over the Bed
From Julie
When I first moved to California, land of earthquakes, one of the first rules I learned was not to hang anything over the bed. This strikes me as a good solution: recessed shelving over the bed.

I've wanted to see a selection of these for ages! Thank you. The one from Ghent via OWI is great, and more proof that Belgium is the new Finland (so much good design).
Lovely, but probably not a good solution for earthquake country! It's true that you shouldn't hang anything above the bed, but you don't want books and pottery falling on your head either!
