Floor to Ceiling Bookshelves

I definitely don't see us having a library in our home anytime soon but we recently signed a lease (yay!) and will be moving to a brownstone in Brooklyn next month and I've already started grabbing photos for inspiration. I'd love to have built-ins like the photo below -- having all of our books, records, and notebooks in a central location.

how exciting! what neighborhood are you guys moving to? I briefly lived in an amazing brownstone in the worst neighborhood in the world. it kind of took the fun out of it, ha.

i love floor to ceiling bookshelves... there's something about them that just adds a touch a class and romance to a place.

I've always wanted floor to ceiling book shelves... if I could find some way of having a mini library in my house I'd be sooo happy!

I have dreams about rooms like this where natural lights bathes the floors and books line the walls. :)

As exiting it is to move to a new place and make a new home, i imagine you are kind of tired of all that moving, don't you?
I'm looking forward t see the new place!!!!! i love you home style!!!

I love these. I'm always running out of bookshelf space though. I'd too quickly be spilling out of these.

I love floor to ceiling bookcases. And they would look sooo good in a Brooklyn brownstone.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE these bookshelves. It is pretty much my lifetime dream to own a rolling ladder.

I love the floor to ceiling bookshelves. I am a book lover myself. I even had a literary theme at my wedding. And gave books for gifts and favors.

congratulations! I know how you feel... my hubby and I just signed a new lease in brooklyn (after being abroad for 3 years) and it feels great! I'm going crazy looking at design ideas :)
I love the library idea...
