My book room

Having mentioned my love of books and my book room in the previous post I thought I would show you some pictures of it. I have always wanted a room totally devoted to books and when we moved into the house a year ago I designed this room. This is where I have my desk and my cameras and there is a sofa and window seat and not much else.

  5. Now that is my kind of room, flooded with light and your colors. Every room needs a touch of black to anchor it. Perfect place to read and shoot photos in.

  12. What a perfect room for reading. I can just picture myself curled up on that couch surrounded by all those books. I just got back from visiting Edith Wharton's home in the Berkshires (The Mount) and now I'm inspired to read some more of her books (read Ethan Frome way back in high school. In her home, she had a room similar to yours with built in shelves covering every wall. Love it! Hoping to show some photos on my blog soon.
