This room was previously used as an infrequently used “sitting” room off the second floor bedrooms of this home. The homeowners wanted to create a library for their book collection and a quiet space in the house to retreat to read or relax. The floors were restained a darker walnut colour and custom bookcases were designed and built to fit the space. In addition, the entire space was painted a warm white to provide a neutral shell for all the colours of the books and accessories. The result – a beautiful library with additional hidden storage and lots of display room for books and other collectables.
