ROCK CLIMBING BOOK CASE

 
 
 



Sallie Trout went fairly far out of her normal interior, furniture, lighting and hardware design experience to create this towering family library right in the centre of her own home. While some shelves can be reached from the floor, adjacent landing or from the triangle-shaped spiral stairs, the rest of the books are accessible only by remote-controlled chain hoist that is attached to a bosun’s chair (stable climbing harness). Readers must ride up and down to retrieve volumes – a little bit of exercise pre-reading never hurt anyone.

    Nice post! It’s my first time to see that kind of book case. Cool! Having a book case is very important because we need to organize our books because books is one of the source of our knowledge.

    Thanks for your publication. One other thing is the fact individual states have their very own laws in which affect homeowners, which makes it very difficult for the our elected representatives to come up with the latest set of guidelines concerning foreclosure on home owners. The problem is that a state has own guidelines which may have interaction in a damaging manner with regards to foreclosure insurance plans.
