Before – Barrington Basement Library Nook

Accessorizing bookshelves can be very tricky. It’s all about balance, symmetry, visual weight, and creativity.

This client owns a large collection of books, but simply placing them on the shelf like a library did not make for a very interesting display. The goal was to make this space tell a story about the family.

By working in some of this client’s existing treasured pieces, newly purchased items, and several of their book collections, we were able to create a display that is very pleasing to the eye as well as special to the homeowners. While perusing the interesting objects, photos, and books, one can really gain an understanding about the beautiful family who lives here. After all, isn’t that what we all want for our homes?
