There's no dispute that bookcases are useful, the problem is that most aren't very interesting. Here's an exception: This DIY bookshelf is easy to build, and it combines horizontal shelves and vertical dividers with an open-back design that's visually light and airy. Look beyond its modern form and you'll find a hard-working bookcase with 11 linear feet of shelf space—not including its top surface.
It's built out of ¾-inch cabinet-grade pine plywood. The top is joined to the vertical sides with 45-degree miter joints, creating a waterfall effect: the wood grain flows along the top and continues down each side. To ensure the shelves can support a heavy load of books, each is set into dadoes routed into the sides. And to give the piece a clean, finished look, all of the exposed plywood edges are concealed with iron-on veneer.
Inside, we describe the step-by-step process
