Have you just bought a new bike and are searching for a comfortable place to park it? Now, you would not have to worry about creating a separate space for it out of your already confined spaces and house corners. Italian designers Byografia have come out with a cool and unique design of a shelf that may not only accommodate your reading materials, but alongside fit-in your bike too. This is a multipurpose, freestanding shelving unit that has been given the name Bookbike. The name also justifies its dual functions as a bike rack and as a bookshelf.
Bookbike offers a single long shelf in which a bicycle can easily be hanged. On the side of this long shelf, multiple smaller shelves are created to provide space for keeping your other belongings and readable items. You may keep your books, magazines, bags, helmets, biking gears, electronic items and other supplies on these shelves. Bookbike’s dual-purpose functionality appropriately reflects the connection between a working mind’s life and human-powered transportation. This bookshelf and bike rack very well suits the modern-day requirements in an urban setting where reducing space has constantly been an issue.
While suitable for the economic urban space, Bookbike also fulfills the needs of the increasing market for unique bike holder designs that make the bike a display object instead of a hidden item. Also, this shelving unit serves the bike storage purpose very well for those environmentally conscious commuters who mostly prefer to ride bikes. There are minimal aesthetics in this unit that make it appear sleek and stylish. You may fit Bookbike in any corner of your house. It not only looks cool but also gives a spacious feel to the place.
