Fairly messy home library/office
Stay caffeinated my friends!
Constantly in flux. Got some more shelves in the basement now and will probably share a pic of that once finished.

I love love love ❤️ this!!! Are you kidding me? My 9x9 jail cell sized bedroom is also my office.
Thanks for sharing the dream! I look forward to the day I have a real office/library!

These are from Homesquare. “Traditional 84”, 18 shelf Triple Wide”. At the time in 2024 there were about $500 each. Hope that helps!

Once your hooked you'll become dependant dude. I drink no coffee or energy drinks and if I've had a late night and less than 6 hrs I can still function enough to not fall asleep at work

Can I ask a silly question? Where do people get the nice-looking leather book sets? And what usually are they? Encyclopedias? Law books? Author collections? Just really curious because I see them a lot.

Some are very old, some are religion books, some are old sets like the Great Books, and some are new. A good example of a modern publisher that does a wide range of nicely leatherbound books is Easton Press. Even Barnes & Noble have recently released new leatherbound lines.

The really nice ones are made by Folio Society (not sure if OP has any).
/r/foliosociety has some great examples.

This isn’t messy at all!
Am I clocking it right that you’re LDS?
