Looks good. Maybe higher backs on the chairs – yes – plus foot stools – I see one artistically arranged with books so points there. And the nicely placed window for over-theshoulder reading light and that fireplace – oh, yes!
Oh yes, you had me at “fireplace.” Just the thought of being able to look up from the pages of one’s book (or even the screen of one’s e-reader) and stare into the flames and glowing embers of the fire, digesting what’s just been read — Heaven!!
I love this room. Even though I am in the middle of having my home library redone in a way that should be quite pleasing to me, I am so envious of the natural light in this room. I think mine is going to lack coziness despite all our efforts.
This is my favourite room thus far … love the style, love the colour, love it all. Indeed, I remember seeing the whole house but can’t remember in which magazine it was in (and I have so many, far too many to wade through, going back to the 1980s.) This is a winter room … think how wonderful it will be with the fire lighted, lamp on, a nice glass or cup of something soothing and, of course, a good book to read!

Yup.
What a cozy reading nook. Love it.
I agree with you completely. I need something to lean back on. And something to put my feet up on. Otherwise, really nice.
With lower backs, you can see more of the books 🙂
I am pinning this. What a beautiful room!
I love it — cosy and stylish — perfect.
Agreed! I also like that it’s not an enormous room – it makes me feel like I could do this one day!

That is gorgeous. Covet…covet…covet…
O..my…goodness. All it needs is the quiet sound of a clock ticking and a sleeping cat. Beautiful!

Library Lust is awesome. Glad it’s not just me who plans the perfect library/reading room in a future home
