[...] Brilliant bookshelves by color. What’s that? You can’t find The Scarlet Letter? Did you look under lipstick red? Colourlovers is a design blog where color-crazies go to peruse palettes, make their own swatches, and find color combination inspiration. The site also features posting capabilities (not unlike MetaFilter) where members can bring the brightest and latest to the attention of their colorful constituents (like this chess set.) If you’re as into color and organization as me, you probably let out a hefty sigh after seeing the shots of these shelves. It’s beautiful but it’s also… comforting. Like the way a Germaphobe must feel after opening a pantry full of perfectly-lined spray bottles, rolls of paper towels, and rubber gloves. Or maybe your first thought was "is this practical?" Or "my books aren’t that colorful." As some of the pictures show, this organizational structure allows one to station a book by any present color, whether it’s the predominant color of the cover, the text of the title on the spine, or even the little red house emblem of the publisher. Hues allow for much flexibility and even whites are varied, some having a hint of green to them, some a whisper of yellow. There doesn’t have to be a white section; these frosty shades can slide seamlessly in and out of the regular rainbow. And if you do judge a book by its cover, this could be an even more efficient method of cataloging than alphabetical. [...]

[...] 1.) Rethink your Shelf Space.  When presented well, your library can be as decorative as it is informative.   When presented badly, shelves of books and papers shoved in every which way can make even a clean room look chaotic and cat-ladylike.  Re-assess your shelving, and figure out whether the space you have is adequate.  It might be time to invest in an alternative shelving system like the Ikea Expedit— a shelf made up of outsized cubby holes  that can showcase your clutter-causing knickknacks and your collection of Penguin classics with equal aplomb.  One piece of furniture can transform a wall from messy storage space to visually pleasing art installation.  You might also want to consider alternative ways to organize your books, like by color.

[...] Reorganize the book shelf: Either by color of books or by subject.  Make it fun…turn books horizontally, being sure to keep the heavier books on the bottom and stack.  Add photos to the stacks; add a vase or fun clock.  I recently did this to my work space and I have to say I feel so much lighter…before I felt like I was in a stuffy library. Here, a blog post that inspired my reorganization, and because I am a color machine.http://www.colourlovers.com/blog/2008/01/25/organizing-bookshelves-by-color/ [...]
