For an old house out in the countryside around Amsterdam, I designed and built this bookshelf to fit around an existing door. The plywood bookshelf was painted to match the colourscheme of the house, a hanging element was added above the door, and some loose shelves to the left of the door for smaller items and keepsakes.
The entire bookshelf was assembled on site with the help of Clamex connectors. The most challenging aspect was to install the hanging element above the door securely.
The final result is a warm and lively addition to the living room, while making the most use of the space and customised to fit the colourscheme of the home.
