more like a prison instead of a library though darling. Reading the same assortment of books for eternity in a grey room. Just makes one want to go "Oh joy !" yes?

1-2 bookcases does NOT make a library!

Let me sit on this formal sofa with no reading lamp, that silk pillow and sorry looking throw and read a book....it's soooo cozy with it's gray and cream.....not. Agree, horrible.

I wouldnt say a libray, more a book case. I think almost everyone has one of those.

Oh great - a library with hardly any books and not a single place for anyone to sit and read and no reading lamps. But that's OK - there's a TV.

Ghastly

Cohesiveness of bland walls with bland furniture. Christ-on-a-hot- stick this is a poor layout and design.

What the heck is that door? A closet? Good luck getting in and out of there for anything other than rarely used items.

This SMALL space screams for a table on wheels with built-in storage, DUH! Made out of something that can double as a footrest also! I mean I see a TV, but no way to stretch out. Who doesn't like to stretch out in their library?

The couch is wrong for that space.

Hmmm, that's the home of the year? It looks mismatched and awkward, the only think I like is the chair.

[MetaKittie]

Its waaaaay too light!

[MuslimahWarrior]

Very cozy looking.

Great job:)
