Residential Design Trend: Luxury Libraries

According to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, there is a new high-end home design trend to watch: luxury libraries. Despite the growing popularity of e-readers like the Nook and Kindle, more and more homeowners are requesting old-fashioned libraries. Whether it’s a small nook, a combined space like a library dining room, or a two-story, dedicated library complete with classic library ladders, decorative architectural components are an essential ingredient to achieve that elegant, timeless library look.  At Art for Everyday, we offer a wide variety of architectural woodcarving designs that will enhance a home library. Columns, capitals, mouldings, and appliques add detail to bookcases, while corbels add sophisticated style to the interior architecture of the room. And of course, no library is complete without a fireplace to curl up in front of with a good book. It should be treated as the focal point it is, with a beautiful custom fireplace mantel.
