Raleigh Timberframe

The library is accessed thru french doors off the entry. As it is actually in the non-timberframe portion, I added extra solid timber beams to create the coffered ceiling. The heart pine flooring from the great room extends into the library. The lower walls are the tongue and groove wood and upper is a handpainted and random block-cut wallcovering that mimics a stone texture. The cozy room is warmed even more with its gas fireplace, a stone/tile surround, and traditional wood mantel with a carved year plaque. Joi S Tannert, ASID F8 Photo Studio
