Thought you might like to see what’s in mid-project around here. I’ve always wanted floor-to-ceiling bookcases in my house, and now that I know we’ve found the house we’re staying in for the long haul, it was one of the first things on my wish list.
I’m going to need to shop for more books once all of the shelving is in . . . . Even if I never have time to read, at least now I’ll look like I do!
Until mine are finished, here are a few of my favorite tall bookcases that I had filed away in my “someday” folder:
Emily!! those bookshelves are going to be stunning, wow!! Can’t wait to see how they finish up, I adore built in’s :). You’re new house looks just lovely, hope you are settling in well and enjoying it.

OH! They look great. The office will be wonderful with the new bookcases. I’m excited to see the whole room!
It’s looking great! I love that the back of the bookcases are a different color! So dramatic and chic! I know it will be gorgeous. :)
Oooo! Happy day, happy day! Love the black.
They look amazing even when empty! I love built-ins and a library-like feel.
It’s looking great, Emily! Love the background color and contrast! Can’t wait to see the end result :)
You are so lucky! I love your wall to wall shelving!
love the bookcases…especially the last one. Space to work and display amongst the books. Heaven. Love your dark background with the crisp white.
Enough said, it’s a winner! You don’t even have to show the finished product and we can already tell it’s going to be amazing.
I LOVE it! Can’t wait to see how you style them! I love the dark backdrop against the crisp white, it’s going to look incredible, I’m jealous!
Would you please, please share the name of the background color that you used in the bookshelves?? I am in the midst of doing something similar in my living room and think I need a (3rd? 4th?) swatch to try out….your color could be the perfect one! :)
Looks great! Love seeing the progress

Great bookshelves! You will love them so once they are done. And they will fill quickly!
Emily, Love the builtin bookshelves, they will lood great in your office! Can’t wait to see it all finished!
Emily,
The bookshelves are just gorgeous. What color of paint did you use on the background wall? I love the contrast.
i LOVE THAT. those bookcases are going to look so awesome, i am jealous/inspired. =) Your pics of inspiration are so cool too, the black lacquered shelving is calling my name big time!
I absolutely love that Isabella Lopez Quesada design. I’m still wondering what they did to have such a long run of shelves with no vertical supports except at the ends. The glossy black paint and metallic stripes around the edging are just gorgeous! If I ever do built in floor ceiling cases in my home, I’m showing the carpenter that room! Thanks for sharing. I can’t wait to see what your finally look will be. :-)
Ohh…I am super jealous of your soon to be bookcases!!
LOVE! It’s already gorgeous!
Emily, your bookshelves are great! Can’t wait to see how you style them. Love all of the inspiration spaces.
I LOVE how it looks so far. That’s going to be one smokin’ office! Can’t wait to see the finished product.
Those bookshelves look like they’re on their way to being fabulous! I can’t wait to see the end result!
Love the bookcase, especially the dark backgound. What fun it will be to accessorize all those shelves. Can’t wait to see the end result.
Those are going to be stunning – I’m in awe! Thanks for giving us a sneak peek at your office.
Love the wall of bookshelves! It’s a dream of inspiration!
Wow, what an amazing built in, I love it!! I love the black and I love your wall color. I cannot wait to see how this space unfolds, I know it will be beautiful!
love it! can’t wait to see the finished result. I love that look too. There is something so calming about it.
Fantastic shelves! Your office will be amazing.

Oh gorgeous! Absolutely beautiful! I loooooove the bookcases!
I love that you went bold on your paint job for the built ins! I’m trying to decide whether to paint mine a deep navy blue:)
Your office looks great! I love that window and the black wall behind the bookcases.

The bookshelves are just gorgeous. What color of paint did you use on the background wall? The contrast colour is so attractive and plan to do same with my bookshelves.

Jealous! You’re bookcases are going to look amazing! Cannot wait to see the progress…
So great to get one of your dream items for your new house! Can’t wait to see them all dressed!
Love it! I am on the hunt for some bookshelf ideas, but because I’m leasing, I don’t wanna go too permanent. Thanks for your ideas and sharing!
