Narrow shelves help you use small wall spaces effectively by accommodating small items in a minimum of space.

Adjustable shelves can be arranged according to your needs.

A simple unit can be enough storage for a limited space or the foundation for a larger storage solution if your needs change.

BILLY bookcase is a beloved icon that never goes out of style. Thanks to its versatility you can use it in many different ways at home – regardless of whether you store books or everyday items in it.

This is BILLY - our most versatile bookcase system! It can be the start of your own library, where your books are protected and you feel inspired to read. BILLY comes in several heights and widths, finishes and materials to suit all books and rooms. When your library grows, you can add extra shelves and height extension units to suit your needs.

"It was 40 years ago I got the assignment to design a simple, functional and smart storage solution for books. I couldn't have imagined then that BILLY bookcase would wind up in so many homes across the whole world. I remember being especially pleased with the adjustable shelves and the depth of the bookcase - perfect for books. We were also able to transport it in a flat pack - an idea I was actually first to develop. The bookcase is still one of my favorites and I hope it continues to be around for many more years."

Particleboard is made from recycled wood and sawmill leftovers – so wood pieces with the wrong shade, woodchips and sawdust become a resource instead of possibly being discarded. We use boards for things like bookcases, bed frames, sofas and kitchen frames. To protect from wear and moisture, we apply varnish, veneer or foil that adds to the furniture's look.

2 adjustable shelves included.

May be used with doors; available in different colors and designs.

May be completed with extra shelves to add storage space.

Product is possible to recycle or use for energy recovery, if available in your community.

Must be secured to the wall. Different wall materials require different types of hardware. Use fixing devices suitable for the walls in your home, sold separately.
