Many people first think of wardrobe, living room and other spaces, but rarely think of books to be planned and sorted out, and even think that it is necessary to sort out paper books in the electronic age. In fact, paper books occupy a place in many families, and their existence in the family not only enriches thoughts, but also decorates life. For a family, a bookcase is often full of books. Whether for children or adults, most people who love books still like to read paper books. The realism of reading and the comfort of writing down two feelings at will still make many people like to read paper books.
The arrangement of family books should be planned as two parts: storage and circulation. Family books, whether read or collected recently, should be placed in bookshelves or bookcases, which should be protected and integrated with the beauty of display in order to store books; At present, because books are easy to obtain and cheap, books at home should be updated and iterated like knowledge that enters the mind, that is to say, books should also be circulated.
The function of arranging spiritual food at home is to be able to read quietly with a book and feel that sense of peace in the quiet state of life. If books confuse the living space, you can't find the book you want to read when you are reading, and you can't read quietly while sitting next to the book, then many books at home will lose their original intention. Therefore, the planning and arrangement of books is also a compulsory course for organizers and a part of family arrangement.
Organize the application of many skills, from messy to artistic placement.
Book classification method in classification step
Books are generally classified into three times, the first time by readers, which is convenient for determining the main screening people and the location of books in the subsequent screening; The second time, according to the nature of book storage, it is divided into exhibition books and collection books, and different storage methods are adopted for different types of books; Third, according to the reading frequency, exhibition books are divided into frequent reading and infrequent reading, and the placement position in specific bookshelves is determined.
According to the situation of my sister's family, firstly, children's books, male books and female books are roughly divided according to readers. Because my sister and brother-in-law read roughly the same books, they are classified according to a merger.
Secondly, books are classified for the second time: exhibition books and collection books. The books collected here belong to books that I didn't expect to read for more than a year or books classified as long-term collections. Books with collection properties are recommended to be placed in bookcases in inconspicuous positions in the study or living room. Here, the bookcase should have a door, which is a necessary condition. Books exposed to the air for a long time are not only easy to shed dust, but also easy to make the paper yellow and brittle. Using bookcases with doors to store books can protect books from dust pollution and sunlight and reduce natural damage. Another purpose is to integrate hundreds of books into a bookcase and make it a whole in the living room, instead of displaying hundreds of books in disorder and unifying them into one color in color, so that they can stand up neatly in the space.
Books that may be read repeatedly in the past year, that is, exhibition books, can be placed on the open bookshelf in the living room for easy access, which will help promote reading and give the living room an atmosphere of books. Open-shelf books have display requirements. Here are some applications of sorting.
Then it is the third time to classify the exhibition books: that is, according to the reading frequency, it is subdivided into frequent reading and infrequent reading. For books that are often read, the location should be arranged in the "golden area" within reach; For books that are usually read frequently, you can put them in the "silver area" that can only be touched by lifting your feet or bending down.
If there is only one family bookshelf, you should choose the books you often read according to the different heights of the owners and put them in their "golden area". For example, children's children are placed in the middle, the hostess's is placed in the middle, and men's are placed in a slightly higher position.
According to the daily finishing experience, some special tips should be given for the "wood area". If the top floor of the open bookcase in the living room is very high, then both the top floor and the bottom floor are "wooden areas". It is recommended not to put books in these two positions. Books placed on it are not easy to take away, and the bottom layer is easy to be contaminated with dust and other stains because it is close to the ground. Therefore, at the top, it is suggested to let go of handicrafts to form a hollow part of the "February 28th principle". At the bottom, it is suggested to put appropriate storage and retention tools, and put some trivial items, such as books, bookmarks or other supplies, as well as file boxes and files that need unified management, such as family cases. These can be arranged flexibly according to different family situations, but the basic principles remain unchanged.
"28 Principles" of Display Layout
When placing books on the open shelf, we should also follow the "28 principle", that is, not only dense books should be placed on the shelf, but also some handicrafts or souvenirs should be placed, or a "blank space" should be arranged, so that the books on the shelf will not feel suffocating. For example, when we go to a bookstore, there will always be some books displayed on the shelves, or some bookstores will put handicrafts or record samples next to the books, so that people who walk into the bookstore will feel less depressed and more comfortable.
Bookshelves at home should have such a sense of beauty, especially books in the living room. If all the books are full, people will have a sense of knowledge at first glance, and at the same time they will feel oppressive. Because the color and height of the spine are different, it will increase a sense of disorder and make people unable to calm down in the living room. Therefore, the arrangement of bookshelves should also follow the basic principle of arrangement-"28 principle" in order to create a perfect bookshelf suitable for families.
Book placement skills
First, unity. The width of books is different. If you simply push them to the last side of the bookshelf, you will feel that the whole book is extremely irregular. You can use a ruler or a skilled palm. Push the set book outward to the spine and stand in a line, and the book will be uniform.
Second, it is highly dispersed. If you use office filing cabinets or decorative cabinets to put books, there will be a waste of space. It's just that the depth of the cabinet is deep, and the space for putting a row of books is wasted, and the ones behind the two rows of books can't be seen. This problem was encountered by my sister in her study. In order to put more books in her study without affecting the search and use, we adopted the arrangement of "low before and high after"
Law. That is, put the taller books in the back and the shorter books in the front. It is advisable to read at least half the titles of the books behind, which can not only expand the bookcase but also prevent the books behind from being identified. If the books are all about the same height, you can also use some tools to make the books at the back "go up the stairs", resulting in the effect of low before and high after.
Knowledge storage does not occupy space, and book updating iteration is convenient.
Gorky once said: "Love books! But think about the friends in our life. Are some people our friends, some are temporary friends, and some people can't be friends no matter how hard they try? The same is true of books. In this era of knowledge expansion, books that can really touch our hearts or really help us also need to be screened and searched. Therefore, the books that we don't need to read again or fondle admiringly are the books that should be circulated, and the books that we feel that most of them have been digested and absorbed and may need to be read occasionally are the books that need to be "collected" by new means. It is mentioned in the practical reading guide that most books are only 8% of the whole book, so it is enough to collect useful parts.
Ways to make books circulate.
"There are always some books that you won't read again, but they are not disposable consumer goods. A really good book is worth reading again. Now let the good books be reborn with the claw fish. " **
The above words come from a second-hand book circulation APP "Claw Fish", which also reminds us that books that we no longer read should be packed and put at home, so that they can be slowly eaten by bookworms in the corner or the pages turn yellow and brittle, and resentment rises. It is better to let them circulate and let people who need them read.
Eiko Yamashita, the founder of the concept of life arrangement that subverts the lifestyle of millions of people, also said that excessive hoarding of goods will make the fate of families stagnate. Even if books that bring us knowledge are piled up for a long time, when they are covered with dust, they will still affect our quality of life. So let the books flow, and let the family flow.
When sorting out and screening books, those books without feelings; Books that have no desire to read after reading can be classified into this category and then processed. There are many ways to deal with books, such as recycling them through second-hand book software to get part of the money for selling books; Can also be sold in idle fish; Or exchange in the same city; Or transfer second-hand goods in the finishing group.
In the process of sorting out books at my sister's house, a large number of books have also been "circulated". Second-hand book platforms are recycled and children's books are given to others in need. When all kinds of methods are used together, not only books are circulated, but the space at home is suddenly enlightened and my sister's mood is also cheerful.
Electronic storage of books that may need to be read.
In the process of sorting out, some books have been turned over by my sister. These books belong to the majority and can be discarded, and some of them are still thought to be used in the future. Describing these books is a bit like "chicken ribs" for my sister. They say it's a pity to abandon them It's a pity to spread it, and it's a little unnecessary to stay at home. I finally gave my sister an electronic storage method for such books.
Nowadays, science and technology are advancing by leaps and bounds. Since all paper books can be turned into e-books, so can the paper books in hand. The biggest difference between these e-books is that they are printed with their own marks, because they are books they have read and also contain their own notes left on the pages. After the transformation, these will also become part of the teaching materials, not just an ordinary e-book.
I recommend two ways, one is to use the "overhead camera" to convert the books you want to keep into electronic documents; Or simply use the "Scan King" APP, scan it with your mobile phone and convert it into an electronic document. No matter what method, all the books you may use are converted into electronic files and stored in the computer to reduce the number of paper books.
Learning is everywhere in family arrangement. A well-arranged home not only brings visual comfort, but also coincides with the convenience of the owner's living habits. Whether it is the placement of clothes in the wardrobe, the placement of books on the bookcase or the design of the overall life of the room, these are all aspects that the organizers have worked hard to achieve the convenience and comfort of the owner's life. Let's organize together, make home a real warm harbor, and pursue all kinds of beauty in life.
