The 14 most beautiful home libraries That Go From Cozy to Extravagant

I was perusing interior design images a few days ago and noticed that the most beautiful home libraries didn’t shy away from color. Even in houses where the rest of the interior was prominently white, the studies were surprisingly rich in deep colors, perhaps because of the coziness and regal feeling that rich colorful rooms provide. In this case no better place for those characteristics to existing than in the intimacy of a home library.  Nothing says cozy more than a warm home library, especially it has a fireplace.  The most formal ones can have panelings and custom built-in bookcases and the most daring ones dazzle in bold colors and sophisticated furniture.   Below, a few of the most beautiful home libraries I’ve seen lately. Enjoy!

Kelly Wearstler created a show-stopping home library with paneling wood and graphic wallpaper in the ceiling.  This type of home decor is young and modern with a classic touch.  Kelly Wearstler’s is an expert at creating beautiful home libraries as you can see for yourself here.

In this more traditional home library, the designer kept the color of the bookcases and walls the same bringing a harmonious atmosphere to the room.  This home decor is on the more classic side.

Classic chairs surround a modern metal legs-table on top of black bookcases.  Love the rusticity of the wood floor against the simple lines on the metal legs and ornate chairs.

I love the costume floor in this library.  Black bookcases and gold lacquered ceiling add glam to the space.  The library table surrounded by chairs provide a perfect setting for kids homework or board game nights.  The blue on the oversized painting lightens up the room.  Photo by William Abranowicz.  Design by Aparicio Associates.  via AD

This home library is not afraid to shine and it proves it by mingling together bright green walls, leopard stools with a striking crystal chandelier.

Caroline Sieber’s Notting Hill home.  Another multifunctional room that becomes the dining room when needed.   The eighteenth-century Indian textile in the back wall inspired the room.  See more of this house here.
