      Hello everyone,

      this is my first post to the gallery.
      I would like to share this work with you called Booktree, a domestic bookcase - tree:

      I wanted to thank the developers of the following plugins and tutorials that helped me do this work:

        Very nice video and design. I was waiting for the booktree forest to form some king of logo in the end. Just think it would have been interesting.

          Hi Kostas

          Do you sell these somewhere in Belgium ?

            Yes, i also tried to do this, but didn't like the result, it was too much like an advertising.
            So i preferred living it like this.

              Thank you Flapsy!
              It is still a concept, not yet a product.
              I am currently making a prototype so i can show it to anyone interested in producing it.
              If it ever comes out you'll be the first to know 😉

                Like the render, don't like the design particularly though. Something about its form doesn't look quite right, it almost looks too heavy in places.

                  I like the design, good work on it, although something keeps me a bit thinking, is it stable enough?
                  Wouldn't the wooden plates bend after a while or break off under heavy weight, because books aren't
                  any lightweight products, unfortunately.

                    Nice observation: it is made out of solid wood, quite thick and strong.
                    Besides, it is held by screws directly on the wall behind the upper branches. Ikea like 😉 ..
