2025
National Award Residential Specialty


This
residential library blends contemporary design with deeply personal
storytelling. A soaring two-story bookshelf anchors the 17-foot-tall
space, while a custom spiral stair connects the sitting area to a
stunning river view above.
Designed to showcase not only books, but the couple’s shared love of
music, art, and words, the room includes hidden niches and curated
displays that reflect their life together. Clean lines and thoughtful
details transformed the space into an intimate retreat—one that balances
architectural precision with emotional resonance, creating a library
that’s as much about living as it is about reading.
