I have no words for that lamp shade. Who doesn’t want to bring the tiki bar into their music room/library?

This may be the dreamiest of dream libraries for me. I love its lightness and simplicity, without sacrificing colour or cosiness. It’s a narrow room (as can be seen from the photo below) and I think this is the perfect use of it.

As we (quietly) launch into this new year, I offer up this retreat. Not only does it provide plenty of shelving for your books, cosy seating, and an excellent variety of lighting options, it also appears to have…swords and daggers on the table? Good to be prepared for anything, I suppose.

I love this “rustic” retreat in Tegernsee (more photos and article – in German – here) and am happy that, like any proper retreat, it has a lovely bookish corner.

As much as the decorative items spelling out ‘nest’ pain me, this dining room earns points for having both a bookshelf and amazing sliding doors that open to the outdoors. And I love the overall modern feel of the space.

How would you feel about escaping to an Italian castle for a while? Or just escaping anywhere, frankly? As long as it’s well-stocked with books I’m ready to go!

This is the home of Slightly Foxed editor Gail Pirkis and, given her excellent literary taste, it’s no surprise her interior decorating sense is just as good.
