A Modern Library with a Wall of Bookshelves

Today I thought I'd show off a project from our sister page, Artisan Built-ins.

This is a set of bookshelves in an offset modern pattern, with integrated brass lights to showcase the books. To the right is a built-in windowseat with a flip-top lid to allow for storage.

It really transformed the room, which started as a blank canvas.

We designed these for the homeowner based on a previous design which we did for another customer. The uprights on both bookcases are staggered to avoid the "tic tac toe" look which you see in traditional shelving.

We actually finished these a few months ago, but this is the first time we've seen photos of it with the books, and the custom cushions on the windowseat. It looks like a great place to relax with a good novel.

If you've always wanted a library of your own, give us a call. We'll help you take your room from "Blah" to "Beautiful."
