What do you think? 

 

I think it’s ok. It works in a modern or contemporary space. I think open shelving is more difficult to keep dust free and also more prone to accidentally knocking items over & off the shelves. I still prefer traditional built-ins, bookcases, & bookshelves.

Re: Wrap Around Corner Shelves

I really like how it looks, but I agree you would really have to try to keep it dust free, and that would require dusting every couple of days, I bet.

Definately not for kids or grands.  Looks dangerous to me actually to every age, especially at a party.  I bumped my leg on the sharp corner just looking at the picture.

I really like it a lot.  Especially the paint color instead of the usual white wall.  Wouldn't like having to dust all that though.

Probably wouldn't work with cats in the house.

Re: Wrap Around Corner Shelves

That would be a prime spot for dropping off clutter in my house, so no.

The house I grew up in had a supportative wall like that that seperated the kitchen and dining room.  My mother had someone put a counter at bar height around it.  Then she bought kitchen bar stools.  We did not have an eat in kitchen and this was a great solution.

Love it!  Like the color of the wood contrasting with the wall color.

I can picture my boys 🐈🐈 running and playing on these shelves!

 

Interesting concept
