Smith & Vansant Architects PC Those are the Sally wall sconce from Floss. They were purchased from Chimera in Boston, but I have seen them here: http://www.ylighting.com/sally.html

is it possible that there's a similar piece of furniture that could be used as the half wall/half bookshelf ? »

Smith & Vansant Architects PC This is custom made, and it is doubtful that you would find a similar piece, given the electrical components.

was it difficult to incorporate the electrical work into this half wall/half book shelf divider »
· Comment · 3 months ago
Smith & Vansant Architects PC Not at all. Since this was a custom built-in we were able to coordinate the sidewall switches, outlets in the baseboards and the nightstands (built-in on the other side) as well as the sconces on the other side as well.

Did you use the same casing dimensions throughout the home? - I noticed on another question for another room that the window side casing is 3.5 wide but 5.5 on the top of the window. Did you do the same in this room and throughout the house for the doors as well? Thank you very much for your time! »

Smith & Vansant Architects PC Hello,
I believe the typical side casing on the windows and doors in this home is 4 1/2 inches wide, but the mull casing between ganged window units is 3 1/2" and yes, we try to use the same trim throughout the house.
Hope that helps!

Is the bookshelf part of the headboard, or a separate piece pushed up to the back of the bed? - Love the idea of the bed facing the view.... »

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Pangaea Interior Design, Portland, OR to Loft Style: Float the Bed
Here a custom cabinet does triple duty. On the side we can see, it is a bookcase. Although we can't see the other side, notice how the ends are closed on this side. I bet that on the side toward the bed there are shelves or drawers for use as the bedside table. Also, judging from the light switches on the end, my guess is that there are lights on the other side too. Super functional!

added by Shawn Gauthier to Headboards Surprise With Storage
Get creative with freestanding pieces by utilizing one side as a decorative headboard and the other as ample storage, like this example. Pieces like these are ideal solutions for loft spaces or studios if you’re trying to create a distinct bedroom space.
