Layering a Room creates depth and visual warmth... (Photo courtesy of: Apartment Therapy) Built-In Bookcases can be a beautiful way to display your books and collectibles, while adding a layer of design and warmth to any room. Bookcases can also divide a space, or make it seem more cohesive, depending on how you utilize them as part of the room. Bookcases can also be an attractive storage wall that seamlessly flows from window to wall when flanked with curtains that match or complement your window treatments. To make your ceilings seem taller, hang the curtains from the ceiling rather than from the top of the bookshelf. The curtains can also be used to hide clutter especially in guest rooms or workrooms. |
