Inform 1800 Curved Bookcase

7 Year Warranty

The Inform 1800 Curved Bookcase caps the curved range at its tallest and most capable: twenty sections with Portal compatibility that turns a curved run into a proper reading hideaway rather than just a shapely shelf.

Product Details

The Full Curve

The Inform 1800 Curved Bookcase splits its structure into twenty sections, ten per side, carrying sixteen fixed flat-edge shelves as standard, each inset 5mm from the end panel. Every unit ships with a 5mm back board finished in Storm as standard, so the reverse of the curve looks as considered as the front. Built on 25mm E0 laminate board, it comes as a fixed unit at 1850mm or a mobile unit at 1900mm on six 100mm lockable castors.

At full height, a curved run stops being a shelf you walk past and starts being a space you walk into. Shape it into a near-complete circle for a reading nook that genuinely disappears from the rest of the room, or run it as a wave to guide movement through a library or learning commons. Drop an Inform Portal Horizon or Retreat into the curve and that enclosed feeling turns into an actual place to sit down. Combine it with the Inform 1800 Double-Sided Bookcase and straight runs, curved sections and booth seating start working as one connected system.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the fixed and mobile Inform 1800 Curved Bookcase?

Fixed sits at 1850mm on adjustable legs and stays in place. Mobile sits at 1900mm on lockable castors, so a loaded curved run can be repositioned and locked in.

Are the shelves on the Inform 1800 Curved Bookcase adjustable?

No. Like the rest of the curved range, it ships with sixteen fixed shelves, built into the structure to hold the curve's shape.

Can the Inform 1800 Curved Bookcase be combined with seating?

Yes. It's compatible with the Inform Portal Horizon and Retreat booth seating, so a curved run can enclose an actual place to sit and read, not just a sightline break.

Can I combine curved and straight Inform bookcases in the same layout?

Yes. The Inform 1800 Curved Bookcase pairs with the Inform 1800 Double-Sided Bookcase, so straight and curved sections read as one system.
