In addition to the amazing modern apartment we posted yesterday, The New York Times T Style Magazine featured a round-up of various shelving systems, from basic colorful units at CB2 to over-the-top sculptural statements priced in the many-thousands of dollars. Some have been featured on AT before, and here are our favorites from the feature...
Babele 06 by Massimo Morozzi for Fiam.
Jeff Miller's Obo Modular Shelving.
Spinnaker bookcase by Christophe Delcourt and Jerome Gauthier for Rouche Bobois.
Standard Issue by Frank for Established & Sons (These were recently iin the window at Manhattan's Matter).
For the entire selection, prices and sourcing see Shelf Life.

My thoughts on shelves...
I have had many, many different types of shelves but was never satisfied with them.
I finally realized that open shelving was what I didnt like. It always looked messy to me. I finally got Wise and tried closed cabinets. My very favorites have frosted glass doors, this keeps everything looking a little less heavy.
