We have a lot of books, a lot. From all the literary top books and writing guides to architecture and web design, there’s just too many for the simple built-in bookshelf and IKEA shelves we had in the condo. The second bedroom (the White Room) is actually used as more of a study. Rather than simply buying more IKEA shelves like we did for the lounge, we decided a large built-in solution would be best.

To maximize space, I incorporated a secretary’s desk within the design. This allowed us to get rid of the huge glass desk I had and opened up the floor space when the desk is not in use.

I designed the piece, had contractors install it, and then we did the painting.
