I’ve always dreamed of one day owning a home with a library. But until then, a cleverly designed bookcase should do the trick! Australian couple Jess and Sinclair Breen made a stunning DIY spiral bookcase using only a series of boxes. The finished product not only offers tons of shelving for storing books, but also makes for a gorgeous statement and piece of wall decor!

Jess and Sinclair own a home renovation company, so completing this project wasn’t all that difficult for them. They used 36 boxes arranged on a large piece of fiberboard which is how they were able to hang the shelving masterpiece.

Each panel that eventually created the individual boxes came with pre-drilled holes, shaving a ton of time off the project.

Voila! The finished product was definitely worth the time and energy Jess and Sinclair put into building this shelf. I love how this couple thought outside the box (literally) and designed a functional storage solution that also happens to look like a work of art. Great work, Jess and Sinclair!
