In her home renovation, DIYer Sophie Murphy transformed a dim room into a bright and cozy space by adding a library wall. Using three IKEA BILLY bookcases, she and her husband relocated utilities, constructed a base, and applied MDF strips to create a built-in appearance. This project exemplifies the potential for DIY renovations to be both budget-friendly and functional, demonstrating that significant home improvements can be achieved without the help of professionals.
We felt like adding a feature library wall could add storage as well as make the room feel warmer.
Something as big as this doesn't need to cost a fortune, and you also don't need to have a carpenter.
A library wall can work equally well within a new-build as it does a historic home.
From this, we then added trim, primed, and painted them.
