wooden wall then shelves over wood
Great Wall idea; copy balls using native materials & change to neutral colors
is the wall paint color and the shelving paint color?
It appears as though the back of the bookcase is the wall. Are the shelves attached to the wall and how? Also what is the widest span to be strong enough to hold books without sagging?
(from wall to wall and how wide the bookcases are). Thank you.
to the wall for safety reasons, but that might be my California earthquake country talking.
The strength of the shelves will depend on the type and thickness of the wood. I'd talk to a carpenter and they can probably point you towards some good options.
Turn your dining room into a library. Fill the walls with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and amp up the cushy reading room feel with an upholstered
I contacted Putnam Ladders which you recommended to one of the other questions but they said that they did not make this ladder & they don't use the metal rails on their ladders like the one in the photo. the library ladder in the photo is perfect for my project & I would so

Try using a spare table as an impromptu library, filling it with stacks from your collection.
this one-wall library opens up to the rest of the room with an understated boldness. The shelving is distinct and darker than the surrounding architecture. And who doesn't want an Eames addition to their reading corner?
cover a wall adjacent to the front door. The dark shelves are highlighted with orange ends that work well in the sparse modern space.
Old books. You don't need to turn your home into an antiquarian bookshop to enjoy that old-book smell. Try using a spare table as an impromptu library, filling it with

What type of wood? Color? Stain? How can we do something like this in our home library? Is the wood mahoghany? Birdseye maple with a dark stain? How can we achieve this look?
Like the wood look and the built in look of these library shelves. Do not like the blue color of the top ceiling trim

using a wide hall for library
make a library somewhere for all books and kids books

Here a long shelving unit and lovely runner transform a hallway into a library.
I've always believed that a hallway is a good place for books — that is, if you have one and don't have a library or room in your living area. To me, the bedroom should be free from too many books (a few on the nightstand or a small shelf is good, but not a wall), and too close to
I didn't see any response to the manufacturer of the library ladder. Any chance you could reply. I would love to know how I could get a ladder similar to this one. It's quite nice & probably the size that I need. Thank you.
I find lots of wood rolling library ladders, but this looks like it is stainless steel. I'd be interested in the source for such a ladder (and weight, price, etc.)
