The library is a room within a room -- an effect that is enhanced by a material inversion; the living room has ebony, fired oak floors and a white ceiling, while the stepped up library has a white epoxy resin floor with an ebony oak ceiling.

Stardust Modern Design These are the Orange Slice Chairs designed by Pierre Paulin in 1960. They were custom upholstered. I have included an additional image in yellow which has more "pop" to it. Here is more information about these amazing chairs: http://www.stardust.com/paulin-orange-slice.html

Yellow Stone Marble & Granite fired oak floors and a white ceiling, while the stepped up library has a white epoxy resin floor with an ebony oak ceiling.
The library (and a guest room on the second floor) is part of a 300-square-foot addition to the floor plan. Its back wall abuts a fairly steep cliff, and "we wanted the library to step into the hill a bit," says Griffin. "It's part of the main house but distinct within the main area — basically a room within a room." To further distinguish the two spaces, the living room has dark wood flooring and a white ceiling, while the library has the exact opposite: a white floor and a dark-stained microlined oak ceiling.
This home has a wide-open floor plan, but the modern library space is demarcated by a change in elevation and rich dark wood. Using shelves that go only halfway up the walls as well as glossy ivory flooring keeps things light.See the rest of this home
