Hello Friends!!
Hope your weekend was splendid!! This was the first weekend, in a LONG time that I was actually home!! It felt amazing to be able to have no plans and just relax. I cleaned up and did LOTS of organizing… I actually feel slightly refreshed! Believe it or not I have a pretty good looking desk under all the piles 😉
I actually was able to sit on the sofa, sort through the stacks on neglected magazines that have accumulated over the last few month while I have been traveling as well as some of my favorite design books. I keep most of my design books on an old cart in my living room for easy access. They are in piles, sorted, but not super neat. These kinds of books I love to have out and the more their are, the better I like it!
I don’t generally like the word Library, because it feels slightly stuffy. If I am going to enjoy a good read or a great inspiration book, I want it to be cozy. Somewhere that has some character. A place I can sit with my coffee and just relax.
Here’s are some great inspirations of how others keep there books displayed…
