Color Library

There's just something about this decorating idea that makes me twitch, in a Type A, OCD kind of way. Although my right brain loves the beauty of organizing books by color, the left brain wonders how you'd ever find anything to read. I organize by subject matter: politics, biography, travel, fiction, chick lit, and Jason's computer books. Books that I am most proud of and want others to see are on the eye level shelves: "Why yes, I did enjoy Anna Karenina!" The books I don't on the bottom: ASPCA Guide to Cats. (I still haven't figured our furry roommates out yet though.)
See this idea taken to a grand scale in a San Francisco bookstore:
It will probably take a very rainy and boring weekend for me to ever give this a shot.
