Sixteen feet of walnut, one grain match.
A wall-to-wall walnut bookcase built around a plastered niche and a window bench, every shelf line held across three sections. Scroll to take it apart, component by component.
Design & Engineering
We drew the wall at 192″ × 94-1/4″ from field dimensions and set out every shelf line, opening, and 2-1/4″ member so the staggered pattern still reads as one grid across all three sections.
Precision Fabrication
MDF walnut veneer, sequence-matched across the run, machined in-house and edged in 2-1/4″ × 3/4″ solid wood nosing so every visible edge is real walnut.
Professional Installation
Set by our own crews in three sections, anchored to blocking, scribed to the drywall and floor, and leveled so the shelf lines run dead flat wall to wall.
Every part, specified before it is cut.
