Bookcase Styling



I love the geometric lines of this Ballard Designs Bourdonnais bookcase, but I can’t find anything similar in Germany. Since I'm always up for a good project, I used an inexpensive Ikea Billy bookcase and Ikea Observator metal cross braces. I spray painted the braces black and used three for each bookcase. Add all of your favorite books and throw in some miniature busts, hat boxes, and crystal candlesticks. Simple. In keeping with the black and white color palette, the office also includes a clothes rack with some of my favorite pieces and my vintage American Tourister luggage.

Part 2 of this project will be adding moulding-embellished top panels.
