BY RAYMOND HAWKEY
DESIGN DIRECTOR.
MOST of us never consider using more than the.
floor to carry our furnishings. But when you think of it, there are usually six surfaces to a room -four walls, floor, and ceiling. The most we are likely to do with our walls is to hang pictures on them.

The first consists of ladder-like uprights made either of wood or metal with shelves and cabinets sus- pended between them. These can be either free- standing or fixed to wall or to the floor and ceiling.
The second system consists of a series of slotted uprights screwed to the wall on which shelf brackets and cabinets are hung.
The best of both systems are elegant, strong, can be taken with you if you move. They can carry books, ornaments, storage cabinets, lamps, radio, TV, and a work surfacc.
Shelving units should always be fixed to or stood against a sound plain wall; a patterned wallpaper will almost certainly result in an extremely unpleasant dazzle.
