If you're the creative type who likes unorthodox solutions and unique approaches to design and function then we've got some fantastic ideas for you! Every room in the home requires shelves, they are crucial both for storage, and for displaying ornaments, photographs, and other decorative elements, but they can also be very boring. People tend to opt for a simple plank of wood nailed to the wall, and while that may serve its purpose, they are missing a fabulous opportunity for inspired wall solutions that will make a real difference to the decor.

That's why today we're looking at 7 innovative wall ideas that will forever change how you think about the humble shelf. These designs are all for the living room, which meant their brief shared one thing in common; the television. Because the television forms the focal point of most living rooms we should carefully consider how we choose to display it, and as you'll see the projects we're looking at today have done an amazing job.

1. Minimalist

This is a really interesting idea, a mounted shelf that extends the full length of the wall to become a step in the staircase! This is clearly the work of inspired interior architects, who have managed to blend features of the home according to human interaction in a really creative way. We love how the timber of the shelf matches the hardwood floors, while the rest of the stairs match the white decor.

2. Multifunctional unit

This fantastic shelving unit has been built into the wall, and features a library, an imitation fireplace, and a really unique extension for the television. Multifunctional furniture is always a winner because by reducing the amount of pieces needed to furnish your room you open up a whole lot of floor space, as you can see in this expansive living room. This is especially true when you build that multifunctional unit into the structure of the home and use recessed shelves.

3. Rustic but modern

This amazing living room balances modern and rustic elements to perfection, with the vintage fireplace and exposed bricks and rafters that define the decor given an interesting counterpoint in the contemporary furnishings, especially those offset shelves on the wall. The television is set on a heavy slab of timber that complements the natural materials of the home, but in combination with the other shelves looks decidedly trendy.

4. A corner unit

If you have a small living area you may need to get a little unorthodox with your room arrangement, and one great approach is to use the corners of the home. With a shelving unit built into the corner they have angled the television outwards, while the rest of the shelves are used for decorations and ornaments. Again shelves are always more effective when they are built into the home so that they can be perfectly measured to purpose.

5. Functional and elegant

This is another example of functional furniture serving multiple purposes. Not only does this shelving unit provide a spot for the television and various decorations, it also serves as a safety measure for the stairs. The dark timber matches the far wall, and the backless design allows the white staircase to double as a funky geometric decorative element.

6. Floor to ceiling shelves

If you have a 1.5 or 2 storey ceiling on your living area, why not use the full height afforded for a floor to ceiling bookcase? Not having enough shelves can be a frustrating problem, while having too many is a luxury, so go crazy! The white colour ensures it is not too overwhelming, while the large centre box for the television gives it balance and functional interaction with the living room.

7. A mobile cabinet

This is a truly original idea for studio apartments, or for those who like to frequently rearrange their furniture. This wonderful shelving unit is on wheels, allowing it to act as a dividing wall in open plan spaces, or to be moved at your leisure; you could even wheel it into the bedroom to watch TV in bed! The television is mounted to the wall, while several shelves wrap around the structure, with cabinets down below providing plenty of storage options.

Your walls should be functional, but they should also be beautiful, and these projects have managed to effortlessly achieve both! For more inspiration, check out these fantastic tips for attics!
