How’s this for a statement? I find this shade of green particularly vile and jarring against the unexpectedly pale floors but it certainly makes an impact.
Not at all my favourite colour. But I can kind of see why they chose it.
I have always wanted green built-in bookcases – but more the shade of the chair than the one they’ve chosen. I must have seen some on TV or something, and have hankered after them…
I actually quite like it 🙂 Darker floors with that shade of green would have made the room horribly Victorian, but like this, it’s actually quite fresh and spring-like. Of course, the huge windows and expensive furnishings help…
I love bookcases above cabinets, but not in that shade of green! I agree that the chair might be a better shade. And I notice the pile of oversize books in the near-side cabinet – I couldn’t afford to waste shelf space like that.
I love the colour! Or am I colour blind? And I love the striped blinds, the chair and the little stool on the right. I would just love to have this room, I don’t think I’d change a thing!
I have to agree with you – it’s the wrong green with the floors. Actually, the floors may be the issue — too pale for a library. Maybe if it were white, or light blue? I love the design, though.
Not my favorite color, but it does look quite striking!
I just created my own personal library out of a 10 X 12 shed (insulated, vented, and heated) and have loved doing it. I admire this green library because it is obviously loved by its owner and as long as they spend time in there reading, more power to them. The chair, however, does not look conducive to reading. Where’s the lamp?
I like this shade of green, but I think there is too much of it. It’s overwhelming! I love the shades, though, and the chair.
to have built in book shelves in my house I would take any color! I love the brightness of this room.
I love the green, but I probably would enjoy it more in a friend’s house than my own.
I’m with you, what an atrocious shade of green.
