Equation Bookshelf

There are many schemes to organize books: alphabetical order, by author, or even by color.

This Equation Bookshelf by estúdio breder, however, lets you to organize your books according to a criterion we don’t normally associate with an organization scheme: their relative importance!

‘Equation Bookshelf’ is a simple idea of to divide things in priority order… put together the books that you need immediately or more important between (parentheses)! Set others between [square brackets] and {braces}.

Maybe today a beautiful flowerpot will be the most important thing! Tomorrow a portrait of a girlfriend and so on… A different and funny way to organize your objects!

    I “could” write an equation describing how impractical and dumb this “concept” is. But why bother. It’s Fugly and Stupid. Anyone that only owns a few books that could fit on that “bookshelf” probably can’t read to begin with.

    I think it’s actually quite clever. The use of nested parentheses to denote priority is a concept that a lot of people don’t get.
