The title of the Limit Bookshelf Divider may be slightly deceiving because there happens to be no limit to the ways it can be arranged and rearranged. Made up of a set of 36 [modular boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/box-set), it can take on a variety of forms depending on the need of the owner. Stacked together or placed individually, the Limit Bookshelf Divider can be used solely as a bookshelf or as a [room divider](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ren-series).

Designed by Alp Nuhoglu for Turkish manufacturer [Delta Ofis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vantagenova-delta-one), the Limit Bookshelf Divider can have a sculptural effect in the space it is placed in, whether that involves the home or office. An optical illusion of sorts, it can be put together in a 2D-mimicking arrangement that will wow any guest or client. It is available in various colors.
