There's no reason that tidying up has to be boring, especially when it comes to books. Instead of keeping your novels stashed on the floor or flat on the table, a decorative bookend will keep texts upright and in view. And to find cool bookends and bookshelves, one doesn't have to look any further than Artori Design. Their functional products all have an unexpected twist to make every day a bit more fun.

This is proven with their Runaway Bookend. The office accessory creates the illusion of books that are about to collapse. On the base is a silhouette of a couple running away from the impending crash of novels. This illusory effect is created by the “invisible” metal wall that you place inside the cover of the first book. With the support structure hidden, you can add up to four standard-sized books to the bookend to create the effect.

Similarly, the Falling Bookend is another decorative piece that transforms any collection of novels into a dynamic scene. It features a black silhouette of a man who is bracing for the impact of a leaning tower of books. Whether you place it in your living room or a bookshelf at school, this home accent is sure to add a whimsical touch to your display of novels.
