Bookcases & shelving units

 If you wish to add a touch of modernity to your living room, a book shelf cabinet may do the work. Book shelves also push you to read more books and make them easy to reach. IKEA bookshelf cupboards are available in different colours, shapes and materials. Shop book shelf IKEA now online.

In it for the long haul

Here’s to natural classics that last a long time! Pickles, preserves, and of course IVAR – our durable, solid wood shelf unit from 1968 that’s become a modern design favourite. Flexible and adaptive, IVAR is easy to adjust, combine, paint (and re-paint) to make it your very own, season after season.

BILLY the transformer

From flatpacks to flexible furniture, we’re at our proudest when we save you space and money. This BILLY shelving unit delivers big on both. By conjuring a desk out of thin air – you simply roll out the cleverly wheeled bookcase section, books and all, and the hidden drop leaf pops automatically in place – it’s a perfect 2-in-1 solution when a permanent or bigger desk isn’t ideal. How’s that for everyday magic?

Let your bookcase tell a story

What bookcase personality are you? All-the-classic-novels, colour-coordination-above-all, collectibles-and-decoration – or slightly more secretive with cabinets and fronts? However you want to be read, BILLY bookcases have all the flexibility, accessories and expressions to tailor your tale.
