5 Favorites: Bookshelves for Small Space Living

January 24, 2013

Some days I reminisce about the simple and small living spaces I was surrounded by after my college years. My roommate and I lived in a Bauhaus-styled apartment building which had been completely remodeled, yet the owners managed to retain its original charm. Here are a few small bookshelf options for those who have limited wall space or who live small.
