Ok, I've got a design for a bookcase but it won't fit where I want it.




A bookcase, like a chair, is a functional item.

As with a chair, design for function first and foremost, and let form
take a backseat, so to speak.


Besides, if you scale all dimensions it is difficult to find books that
have been scaled too.
