If your library will function as a home office, include space for a desk and keep the overall ambiance in mind.
Built-in Bookcases
Consider the size of your book collection and if youll be using the shelves to display artwork or other objects.

Whether its a chaise lounge or plush leather chairs, the furniture should be comfortable and sophisticated.
Thoughtful Lighting
Recessed lighting is best for reading, whereas wall sconces can contribute to the ambiance.
