The Library Bookshelves!

<center></center>If you've been reading LGN for practically any amount of time, you probably know that I love me a good bookshelf! In the past we've used a series of IKEA bookshelves to house most of our books (here's a link to the <a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2011/08/diy-arched-bookshelves.html" target="_blank">DIY arched version</a> and the <a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2013/01/making-billy-bookshelves-look-like_7.html" target="_blank">faux-built-in version</a>). When we moved to this house though, I knew we were going to invest in something special for our library built-ins. I am SO happy with how these turned out! The shelves are pretty much the first thing we see when we walk in the door and they make me smile every time.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo classy4.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/classy4.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo classy3.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/classy3.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><br />I hired a local company called <a href="http://classyclosets.com/" target="_blank">Classy Closets</a> to build and install the insanely huge shelves (they are over 16' tall!). I learned about the locally-owned company first when I was helping my friend Caitlin Wilson work on<span id="goog_2085084740"></span> <a href="http://caitlinwilson.com/trad-home-feature/" target="_blank">a show house</a><span id="goog_2085084741"></span> for the Street of Dreams in Gilbert. Show homes are a great way to discover local companies and I saw Classy Closets' work and was super impressed.<br /><br />They were wonderful to work with them from the get-go. They have amazing in-house designers that can take care of everything if that's what you need/want, but they also love to collaborate with designers. They also offer trade pricing or commissions, which ends up being really helpful for big projects like this one, though I will say their pricing is incredibly fair for the great, fast work they do. And actually, Classy Closets is offering a huge give away right now for a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ClassyClosetsUS" target="_blank">$2000 worth of custom cabinetry</a> (they do everything from closets to kitchens)! <br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo KomendaLibrary.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/KomendaLibrary.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /><br /><a name="more"></a></div><br />So the basic process was I came up with a few drawings and then worked with their production designer to finalize the dimensions and the plan. There were some pretty big tweaks to what I initially wanted because of the vintage library ladder I was asking them to incorporate in the design. The design team was amazingly detailed and careful about the ladder and how and where to install the rod to make the ladder run as smooth as possible.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo vIMG_4467.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/vIMG_4467.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><br />Let's back up a little though and savor the project reveal! :) If you'll remember, we had a big empty wall here before. We pulled off the old moulding, had an electrician move the wiring up to where the library lights would be, patched the walls and holes with drywall mud, and then primed and painted the whole thing the color of the bookshelves (Ben Moore's Chantilly Lace).<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo vIMG_4429.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/vIMG_4429.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_5110.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_5110.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Once the shelving design had been finalized, it only took a couple of weeks for the Classy Closets crew to build the cabinetry. The installation took almost two full days for an entire team though! This was a huge project and they were wonderful craftsmen. I couldn't have been happier with the work they did - clean and efficient.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_5168.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_5168.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_5187.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_5187.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_5216.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_5216.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">At the end of the second day, the library ladder track was installed. I chose an iron rod to match the hardware on the rollers of the ladder. I thought about doing brass to match the lighting (which was a sale find at Restoration Hardware) and the large ring pulls (which are from Liz's Antique Hardware), but I like how the metals and finishes mix. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_6267.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_6267.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_7753.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_7753.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_7751.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_7751.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The ladder, which was a $250 Craigslist find (apparently inherited from a famous race car driver in California? <a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2014/03/new-old-library-ladder.html" target="_blank">Here's the back story there</a>.), runs as smooth as butter. It's hard to not hop on for a ride a few times a day! :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo classy8.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/classy8.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">It's pretty amazing that we have all of our books in one place finally. Even in Brooklyn, we ended up having to store some books in other rooms. But having this much storage space is completely amazing. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo classy5.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/classy5.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2013/01/organizing-books-by-color-and-by-genre.html" target="_blank">We did my trick</a> of organizing by genre and then very loosely by color. And then I just added in a few little containers here and there to break things up a bit.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_7658.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_7658.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo classy9.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/classy9.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_7705.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/IMG_7705.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo classy7.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/classy7.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><br />These built-ins are such a big part of our home now. We all love spending time in the library. It feels homey and cozy and comfortable. A big thank you to <a href="http://www.classyclosets.com/" target="_blank">Classy Closets</a> for being so generous to me with their time and with their designer discount. I am happy to have found another great local resource! And locals, don't forget to enter the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ClassyClosetsUS" target="_blank">$2000 master closet redo give away here</a>.<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo classy1.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda027/classy1.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div>

New Frames and Tiger Chest in the Library

<center></center><center></center><center></center>I love coming up with ideas for inexpensive but still good-looking framing options (I included a link list at the bottom of this post), but sometimes it's fun to drop off art at a framers. I happened to noticed a couple of really pretty gold frame moldings at Michaels that were on clearance a few weeks ago.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_5436.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/IMG_5436.jpg" /></div><br />I found both of these paintings at local junk and thrift stores in the past year since we moved here and I LOVE them both! The colors and subject matters are so beautiful to me, and they were both pretty inexpensive, so it was worth it to spend some money on pretty frames (I think the smaller one came up to about $45 and the larger was $75).<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_5433.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/IMG_5433.jpg" /></div><br />I have them hung over my favorite tiger chest (that was a Housing Works find in the city) in our front room/library area.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo LR25.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/LR25.jpg" /></div><br />I wanted to keep all the colors in the same family here and I love how they all work together with the color of the new curtains too.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo LR26.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/LR26.jpg" /></div><br />The Sonneman lamp was a recent purchase I got during a work trip at Olde Good Things in New York. The <a href="http://www.cb2.com/stainless-steel-spheres/f3192" target="_blank">metal sphere</a> is from CB2. The girls pretend it's some sort of gazing/crystal ball situation. It's pretty unbreakable, so I mostly just think it's hilarious when I find it in the playroom at the end of most days. :)<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo LR11.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/LR11.jpg" /></div><br />The leaning abstract was another vintage find. There is some sort of interesting back story about the artist, whose name is simply Harley, but I don't know much about him. Antique Gatherings in Scottsdale has a ton of his work right now though. I'm sure it was an estate purchase.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo LR8.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/LR8.jpg" /></div><br />I love this little spot in our home. :)<br /><br />And as promised, here's a list of some cheap framing/matting options:<br /><br /><a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2012/03/diy-picture-frame.html" target="_blank">DIY Frames from Bigger Frames</a> (photos below)<br /><a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2012/02/huge-prints-for-only-4.html" target="_blank">$4 Giant Prints and Mounting on Foam Board</a><br /><a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2011/07/antique-prints-in-ikea-frames.html" target="_blank">Antique Prints in IKEA Frames</a><br />"Gold Leafing" Old Frames <a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2012/02/magic-of-gold-leaf-pen.html" target="_blank">with Markers</a> and with <a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2012/06/diy-gold-leaf-art-frame.html" target="_blank">Legit Leaf</a><br /><a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2014/04/adding-detail-to-frame-mats.html" target="_blank">Adding Hand-Drawn Lines to Existing Matting</a><br /><a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2009/10/dining-room-projects-part-i.html" target="_blank">Bias Tape Designs on Matting</a><br /><a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2011/01/colorful-matting.html" target="_blank">Colorful Mats</a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo IMG_4076.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/IMG_4076.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo 22DSC_0010.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/22DSC_0010.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">HAPPY WEEKEND!!!

Home With Two-storey Glass Library

<br/><img alt="house with two storey glass library thumb Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " height="836" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/house-with-two-storey-glass-library-thumb.jpg" style="" title="Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " width="630" /> This project, created by Swiss firm Philippe Stuebi Architects, is set on a really difficult and hugely regulated plot of land. These constraints, plus the owners’; short, have brought out a 4 storey creating with an irregular polygonal shape. Observed from the street side, the property has a a lot more frequent look, with an underground garage an a very neutral facade. The surprise comes when hunting at the home from the sides and from the back, where there are much more irregular shapes plus a bolder mix of colors and textures. Contrary to what one particular would anticipate from such a contemporary house, the interior spaces are not broadly open. Provided the certain shape of the residence and the need for extremely certain rooms, the home is divided vertically and horizontally in numerous smaller spaces, with nicely defined functions. The layout is primarily based on the enfilade principle, where you enter a single room from yet another. This is of course the case for the communal spaces , such as living places, offices or other shared spaces. The private spaces such as the bedrooms are placed strategically in the layout so that they maintain their intimacy. The most impressive portion of the house however is the double storey library nested at the back side of the polygon.<br/><img alt="house with two storey glass library thumb Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " height="472" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/house-with-two-storey-glass-library-thumb_.jpg" style="" title="Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " width="630" /> The property is characterized also by a number of access techniques: two staircases and an elevator.One of the staircases depart from the library area leading up to the second storey of the library, but also to the rest of the second floor.<br/><img alt="house with two storey glass library thumb Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " height="945" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/house-with-two-storey-glass-library-thumb__.jpg" style="" title="Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " width="630" /> On the initial level, the library follows the shape of the space like a lining to the glass walls. The library is see by means of and its degree of transparency is in fact regulated by how a lot the shelves are filled with books or objects. This bottom component of the library also serves as a show for objects that can be admired from inside or outside.<br/><img alt="house with two storey glass library thumb Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " height="420" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/house-with-two-storey-glass-library-thumb___.jpg" style="" title="Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " width="630" /><br/><img alt="house with two storey glass library thumb Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " height="945" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/house-with-two-storey-glass-library-thumb____.jpg" style="" title="Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " width="630" /> The floor of the ground floor is covered with white and grey marble all more than. The height of the ceiling varies from space to space, some regions obtaining double height and some single h7 In order to mark the transition from 1 space to yet another, some corridor walls are painted a bold fuchsia color.<br/><img alt="house with two storey glass library thumb Home With Two storey Glass Library home design " height="945"

Rust Mohair Slipper Chair

<center></center><center></center>A long time ago, I fell in love with a rust-colored velvet slipper chair I saw at Lillian August. I loved the cream contrasting welt. It felt so pretty and fresh to me!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo bIMG_3785.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/bIMG_3785.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo vIMG_3788.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/vIMG_3788.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><br />A year or two later, I found this tight-backed slipper chair at the Restoration Hardware outlet from their deconstructed line.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo ccIMG_8972.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/ccIMG_8972.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo vIMG_8971.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/vIMG_8971.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><br />I think it was about $100. We kept it in our living room in the brownstone while I was trying to figure out what fabric to cover it in (or really, just trying to find the time to do it).<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo aDSC_0111.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/Album%203/aDSC_0111.jpg" /></div><br />Then after we moved to Phoenix and while I was rushing to get the house ready for the Domino shoot, I popped into one of my favorite local fabric stores called SAS Fabrics (the one on Indian School is the best) and I found a few yards of the prettiest deep rust, almost oxblood, mohair fabric there for only $3.99 a yard! I used a lot of dusty mint colors in our library and music room area and I loved how these colors looked together.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><center></center></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo vIMG_4687.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/vIMG_4687.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><br />I had my upholsterer follow the curve of the back and sides with a cream piping, inspired by the Lillian August chair that I saw so many years ago.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo LR4.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/LR4.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo LR2.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/LR2.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div><br />Isn't it funny how some things just sort of stay with you? I'm so glad I finally got my rust slipper chair. I feel like it was a long time coming! :)<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt=" photo LR1.jpg" border="0" src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/jkomenda022/LR1.jpg" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
