Awesome bookcase for a retro-themed rec room

This is a clever idea, and would be loads of fun in the right decor — perhaps you could have a set of end tables with long tablecloths, in cyan, orange, red and pink which you could call Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde?

I wonder, though, if the effect would be lost if you actually filled the shelves up with books whose spines weren’t bright yellow?

At any rate, you can contact the designer at this website and order one. No price is given, but I’ll bet shipping is pricey. Unless it’s shipped flatpack Ikea-style.

Or unless you can somehow ship it off to the left, appearing simultaneously at the right.

    When did the 80s become the new 50s? I can’t believe I’ve reached the stage in my life where the delights of my youth are now considered vintage/retro. <> Kudos to you, Grant, for remembering the ghosts’ names. (I had always wondered why Clyde was so named, but after a quick consultation with <> Wikipedia, I see that it was a step-up from “Mocky, Crybaby, and Stupid”.)
