This home is so amazing! what the material is In the back of the bookshelves and where to purchase? - I am updating my fireplace and the surrounding cabinets in my family room. I want to paint the cabinetry white but dont want it to feel so cold. I think this would be a great choice that would lend a casual feel. Thanks! »

meshaffer1 Did you stain the tongue and groove white oak? If so, with what product and color?
Thank you!

Robbins Architecture Thank you. It is stained, but I don't know what they did. It is bascially clear to seal it. No color was added.

What is on the other side of the bookcase/bench seat? - We have a living room/dining room combination and I am looking for a way to separate it. I was thinking maybe doing a library/reading area in the living room since the family room is right around the corner. »

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Kristie Barnett, The Decorologist to Mood Makers: Make Your Home Inspiring
When a fabulous library shares space with a previously underused dining room, guests will be inspired to take a fresh look at their own underused spaces. Dining rooms and formal parlors can be lonely rooms, but they can come alive again when filled with amazing books.
added by Natalie Myers to Pick the Perfect Dining Room Storage
You: Never know how many people are coming to dinnerYour storage: A bookcaseAs your guests gather around the extended table — fitting onto the bench you have provided — you share stories and laugh over anecdotes. A bookshelf full of framed photos and albums, reference books, cookbooks and mementos will come in handy as you illustrate your points and make new memories at each meal.
added by Beth Woodson and Kristy Harvey to Graceful Decorations for Traditional Dining Room Walls
When possible, built-ins are a practical storage option doubling as wall art. They are an ideal place to display beautiful china and glasses that coordinate with the decor. Or, if you want to get creative, books and photos can add an unexpected touch in a traditional dining room.
