Furniture : Product reviews: Billy Bookshelf by IKEA
Ikea have sold Billy bookshelves for many years and although they also sell other bookcases the Billy is one of their most popular lines.
Billy is now a whole storage solution range from IKEA, there are several different bookcases which vary in width and there are also a couple of heights. You are also able to buy doors to attach to the bookcases to make storage dust-free and if your house has very high ceilings you can even buy extra units which fit on the top to increase the storage. The bookcases are also available in several finishes: white, beech veneer, birch veneer, oak veneer and then also black, red, blue and silver in some of the sizes.
We selected the standard Billy bookshelf with an Oak Veneer. The dimensions are 202cm tall, 28cm deep and 80cm wide. These cost £55 each but the white ones are only £35 each.

Wooden furniture is always in a class of its own
Wooden furniture is always in a class of its own. If you choose carefully what furniture to buy and what they can do for your home, you can ultimately be very happy. If you are thinking about purchasing some fine wooden furniture it is important not to rush into your choice and you should consider things such as what type of wood should be used, what pieces would look best in your home. Wooden furniture looks especially good in the dining room for example. A dining room is most commonly used only on special occasions for example for special dinners or for parties. This is why when you enter this room it should always feel like you are stepping into quality, and with fine wooden furniture you most definitely get this.
Architect : Art deco in American industrial design
The period between World War I and World War II is often referred to as the Art Deco years. The sleek, rectilinear forms and synthetic materials created a vision of the future. This vision was embraced by the thrill seekers of the 1920’s as well as Americans seeking an escape from the hardships of the 1930’s depression.
Art Deco design could be found everywhere from architecture to industrial design. It naturally lent itself to industrial design with its geometrical shapes; sweeping curves, clean parallel lines, and rounded corners that optimized value and appearance in an elegant, glamorous, functional, modern way. It was art incorporated into everyday life.
The early concept of Art Deco was meant to be a representation of luxury and wealth and initially it catered to the wealthy. It was characterized by materials such as exotic and inlaid woods, precious metals, tortoise shell, oriental lacquers, stainless steel, aluminum, chrome, Formica, sharkskin, zebra skin and Bakelite. The handcrafted look was an integral part of the early Art Deco period and was highly sought after. Craftsmanship was valued, particuarly by the rich and famous. Consequently, it became valued by the average American eager to have the same thing as the celebrities had.
