This book is exactly what the title claims it to be: a catalog of ways to integrate built in furniture into every room in the home. As a decided fan of nooks, built in shelving, bed alcoves, really almost any built-in furniture, I found something delightful on nearly every page, and I even got a handful of ideas that might actually be practical. Even the ideas that were not practical for us were still delightful (e.g., like the full bedroom width gothic built-in headboard, see the second hit show more for "gothic" on Amazon's Look Inside tool for the book above to see it).

Many of the built-ins in this book were added after the fact. I appreciated that because I suspect our budget cannot bear to have us build in originally all of the built-ins that I want eventually.

A good read if you are looking for inspiration about built-ins. show less

Even if you don't do woodworking, these tools are beautiful to look at.
