Another interesting approach to using books as a design element: turning paperbacks so that their pages face outward. To me, this feels like a novel (sorry) take on the classic designer's trick of covering books in white paper for a uniform look.

Sullivan Building & Design Group made the most of this space with an interior renovation that made a bedroom with built-in beds and book nooks. An all-white palette keeps things from looking cluttered.

Carving out a soothing space like the one shown here, with its white linens, simple lighting and book collection, will not only provide guests with comfort, but the bed placement will give them a bit of privacy — even if bunking with others is required.

3. Use every inch. A built-in bookshelf inside a built-in bed adds dimension. The twin bed tucked behind the queen is a great way to capture every last bit of space. Even though there is only a small dividing wall between the two beds, the staggered heights give each side their own personality and privacy.
