47. Separating a Studio apartment With a Billy bookshelf
One of the most famous Ikea tricks that have been done over the years is to break up a studio apartment using the Billy bookshelf. When you don't have walls separating your living space, these bookshelves will make it easier for you to add a sense of privacy. The picture above shows a bookshelf next to his bed to make himself a room for someone renting an apartment in Barcelona. I've also seen this done for people trying to break down the living room in the apartment and the office area as they work from home. This also gives you a place to display your books, statues, housewares, and collections. And if you're doing a lot of Zoom meetings, it can also be a great backdrop.
