Re: Creative Bookcases: Official Rules
The vantage point of the photo makes the cantilevered shelves appear to be angled downward--clearly this would render the piece unusable as the objects would tend to slide off the shelves. On closer inspection, adjusting for the angle of sight of the image, I see that they are all parallel and level, if my perception is correct--quite a technical challenge--no wonder it took 200 hours. I have to say that if this shelf is intended for books, the designer missed a perfect opportunity to angle the shelves upward. Even a small angle would be enough to keep the books leaning inward, thus taking advantage of gravity and eliminating the need for bookends that take up valuable space and possibly detract from the design of the shelving. This slight modification would not spoil the overall appearance of the piece.
