We all need a cozy room in our house where we can unwind from a hectic day with a favorite book and listen to sound of cracking firewood. A Home library would be perfect for it. We
had homeowners come to us with their own lumber that they have stored for many years, looking forward to a day when they could have their cabinets built out of it.Home Libraries
are types of rooms, where you can use in abundance various
architectural millwork: staked moldings, columns, wainscot paneling,
and valances. You will choose between different shelf edge details which ideally should resemble other moldings used throughout the room. Beaded
face frames, flutes, and decorative moldings add elegance
to the cabinets. Rolling ladder will assist in access to tallest shelves
of the cabinets. And don't ignore windows and ceilings. They can be wrapped in wood too. Window seats can be used for extra storage.
Counter tops can be made out of solid pieces of wood, or for a cost saving
solution, from matching plywood with applied wooden edge. And to conclude, brighten-up the
bookshelves with a soft lighting.
Wood species that are most commonly used in fabrication of home library cabinets - are walnut and cherry. Please keep in mind that not all wood is created equal. Some species are soft; misuse can leave the cabinets with unsightly dents. Talk to cabinetmaker first, if you want to use for your home library wood other than walnut and cherry.
