Arched Book Shelves, Doorways, and Windows

May 17, 2017
  • Share

I love a good arch.  As mentioned many a time, my best of friend AM loathes arches.  We have been best of friends for years and have rarely had major differences.  The arch thing is a major difference.  Yes, best of friend AM, I am drawing a line in the sand about arches. I love love love love them.  So… AM and I love talking about home decor.  We both get really excited when chatting about all things design.  We are aligned.  She likes a little more bold color and pattern than I do, but generally we are in sync…on the same page…see eye to eye…like minded…kindred design spirits…except when it comes to arches.  I don’t know why she doesn’t like arched things. I really don’t.  I know, after all these years, I cannot sway her.  It is fine.  I am resolved.  One less arch lover means more arched things for me.  I love arches in home decor.    I do.  I think a good arched built in book shelf, window or doorway can all of the character you need into a space.  Take a look and then please weigh in on this great debate…do you like arches? Or don’t you?

    One of the main reasons I bought the house I live in is the arched doorways.
    And that arched glass door/doorway above is the bomb.
    So I am 100% with you on this one! Love an arch.

    I do like arches…they add interest to any space…with that being said, I like interior arches…but outside facade arches…maybe not so much…outside arches can sometimes seem phony and contrived….unless the arches are ancient. But yes, I vote for arches. 🙂

      There is most definitely something special and almost romantic about having arches in your home

    I agree with the the author of this article 100%. I really do love arches in all forms of architecture, especially if it happens to frame a stained glass window.

    I love the arches and the roomy feel and the high ceilings. In fact, I love absolutely everything about it!

    I love the arch in every form of setting . It adds beauty and and is eye catching. The hallways, the book shelves,and the windows all bring a difference. I will always have the arch designs as number one.

Last weekend I started my spring cleaning project. Last weekend I started my spring cleaning project. I still have some more things to clean. I organized my garage it looks so much better. I always feel better when things are clean and organized. I hate that I have all of this stuff. I’ve collected different items over the years from flipping a house, product line, samples, and outdoor dinner party accessories. Too much stuff! I’m glad most of it is organized now. Maybe it’s time for a garage sale?? Did you start any spring cleaning projects?

Here’s a beautiful kitchen for some inspiration. Here’s a beautiful kitchen for some inspiration. A historic Washington D.C. townhouse fully gutted & renovated. The matte black and white floors adds some drama. While the off white cabinets and the oak island makes the kitchen feel warm and intimate. What do you love about this kitchen design?
