by Faith Teel This post is just for you "blue and white" fans! I'm one of you. I love the new trend of color sneaking in with all the gray and white we've been seeing, and blue is so easy to integrate with neutrals. Speaking of gray, remember those blue-gray bookshelves that we installed at 55 South Market in downtown Asheville? This is project is from the same apartment, where the blue theme is carried over into the next room. But when we first arrived on the scene, it was just a plain white box. Of course, it was headed someplace a little more daring. The homeowners planned to use this room as an office, and they needed a shallow set of shelves (since the room is fairly narrow) that would still hold their deep printer. We were brought in to add a custom bookcase with a special deep shelf. That's our design for the shelves. We do lots of white bookcases (they're classic!) but this was the first time we put them up against a Navy-blue wall, and the effect was really nice even in the model. We built them at the same time as the gray fireplace surround. And in addition to all of these bookcases, we built a pair of sliding Shaker-style doors which were destined for the office bathroom. These would take up less floor space than an ordinary door, which would allow the homeowner to use more furniture in the small room. Then the painters were brought in... ... and we got to work soon afterward. I love this view of downtown Asheville. I could work in an office like this! On the other side of the office, the sliding doors leave room for a comfy chair. Classic white bookshelves like these look good in any room. Give us a call to get yours.

What is the name of the shade of blue paint you used on the first photo with the fireplace?
