All the souvenirs and collection elements should be kept behind the glass, in a showcase. In that way they will not get dusty so easily.
Room of every man is the reflection of his character and passions. Therefore, it should be arranged according to his fancies but at the same time in practical and functional way which can be achieved by means of simple solutions.
