I'd love to have that much space for books & other stuff. At this time I have a minimal number of books since that whole homeless incident. And the one wall of bookshelves next to my bed is more than enough. But I just really like that space!!!!!

Too much activity going on there, for my taste.  I opened that link and felt like I was having an anxiety attack.  It looks cool, but would drive me nuts.  I think most of the things I own would fit on one single wall there, with room for more!

I LOVE this! I have long envisioned doing up my bedroom walls entirely in shelves, but the whole house? I LOVE it!

Lord knows we could use that much space for books, but my idea leans more towards this...

Now this I like. I could fill it up with all kinds of old books.

cool to have that much room for all my books, and the many more i'd love to have, but it's just too busy for me. i'd like it aqlot 'older' looking with a big oak desk (not that that would have the ability for tying myself or playmate into....oh no, i've not got that idea in my head at all ) and olde worlde english. i'd also like little steampunk gadgety type things in there to play with too. nice big sofa in there as well for reclining and reading....a globe....that sort of stuff.

I like a clean, unobtrusive look, I think I would cover all the shelves with sliding doors, that would cut down on the dusting thing too.

Treasure's wall is more my speed. The problem, as you all know, is that as much space as you have for books, you will fill up. And then you'll keep buying more books with no space for them. Book collecting is an incurable illness.

whats the worst tho, is when you buy a book you already own! I have done that a few times (books & magazines), even tho I have a list on my computer, sometimes you mess up...

Forget shoes, one can never have enough shelves!...
