HOME LIBRARY
ELLINGTON
LONDON
This home library in North London was designed by Open Studio Architects. Featuring pippy oak veneered lower level units and shaped floating shelving above. Each shelf has hidden, integrated lighting and is capable of being fully laden with books. The stone surface has a covered sink area and a brushed bronze tap.
"Williams Ridout designed and handmade a beautiful, contemporary library with extra storage for board games and shoes in the hallway of our apartment. It has transformed the feel of our home. The quality of the craftsmanship is top notch, and it was a pleasure to have the team in our home. I am absolutely delighted with the result and have already commissioned them to come back and redesign my living area."
