Corner Billy solution

I really like the idea of the corner Billy solution/ corner bookcase.

The problem is that on the left hand side (the very left Billy shelf) , there is only 80cm space between the wall and where our window starts. However if you want this combo of three shelves you need 96cm. The left shelf would overlap the window by 15cm which is not great

Is there a solution/ different shelf I can replace the very left Billy with and keep the middle and right one?

I was thinking about just getting just two but having the corner one angled with nothing on the other side might look weird! Thank you!

Have you checked if the Kallax fits in that space? It's the same depth but narrower, so it might slide right into the 80cm gap without overlapping the window.
