Bookcases & Bookshelves
Bookcases and bookshelves organize and display books, décor, and everyday essentials while adding structure and style to any room. Mathis Home carries a wide range of bookcases — tall and short, narrow and wide, corner, ladder, and cube styles, in both open-shelf and door-front designs — for home offices, living rooms, bedrooms, and entryways.
When choosing a bookcase, start with the wall it will sit against: measure the available height and width, then decide whether a tall bookcase, a low bookcase, or a narrow bookshelf best fits the room. Open shelving keeps books easy to reach and feels airy, while a bookcase with doors keeps contents tidy and dust-free. Match the material and finish — wood or metal — to the rest of your furniture, and look for adjustable shelves if you plan to store items of varying heights.
What is the difference between a bookcase and a bookshelf?
The terms are often used interchangeably. A bookcase is typically a freestanding unit with several fixed or adjustable shelves set in a frame, while a bookshelf can mean a single shelf or a lighter open-shelf unit. At Mathis Home, freestanding bookcases and open bookshelves are listed together so you can compare styles side by side.
What types of bookcases does Mathis Home carry?
The assortment includes tall and short bookcases, narrow and wide bookcases, corner units, ladder-style leaning shelves, and cube organizers, in both open-shelf and door-front designs. Finishes range from traditional wood tones to modern black, white, and metal-framed looks.
How do I choose the right bookcase size for my room?
Measure the height and width of your wall space before you shop, and leave clearance above the unit. A tall, narrow bookcase makes the most of a small footprint, while a low or wide bookcase suits open walls and doubles as display or lower storage. Adjustable shelves add flexibility for books, bins, and décor of different heights.
Are bookcases with doors or open shelves better?
It depends on how you will use it. Open shelving keeps books and décor easy to reach and makes a room feel more open, while glass or solid doors protect contents from dust and give a tidier, more finished look. Many shoppers combine both — open shelves for display and closed storage for clutter.
How are tall bookcases kept stable?
Many tall bookcases include anti-tip hardware for anchoring the unit to a wall. Always follow the manufacturer's included instructions and use the provided hardware to secure your bookcase, especially in homes with children or pets.
Whether you're outfitting a home office, filling a reading nook, or adding display storage to a living room, Mathis Home has a bookcase to fit your space and style.
