How to Organize Your Books with Storage Cubbies
1 of 5
In a 495-square-foot attic in the Söder neighborhood of Stockholm, interior designer Jimmy Schonning—a local celebrity for his role in the Swedish TV shows "Finally at Home" and "Styling Emergency"—carved out a stylish home. Books are stored in a stack of cubbies beneath the stairs; magazines are stashed under a built-in concrete shelf.
The reading corner can be turned into an extra bed. Schonning designed the leather poufs himself, and made the cushions from an Ikea carpet. Under the concrete slab there is room for wood, books and newspapers. Photo by Per Magnus Persson.
