Friday Fun: Home Libraries of the Rich and Famous

I don’t need a whale of a house (although I keep dreaming of chateaux where I can make all of my friends welcome when times get kinder and allow us to travel freely once more). I could live quite modestly. But I would spare no expense (if I had the money) in setting up a fantastic home library. So who can blame these people for their extravagant interiors?

Bette Middler has this quite feminine library (with ladder!), as featured in Architectural Digest.
Unsurprisingly, the male founder and owner of magazine Vice has a more masculine home library, from WSJ.com
Not quite sure who is the owner of this home study/library, but it’s in Brooklyn, so the field is wide open. From Ultralinx.com
This looks darker and gloomier, monochromatic – except for that luscious green landscape. From Elle Decor.
Meanwhile, this Paris-based home library has light just flooding in. From Imgur.com
More realistic dimensions in this Sao Paolo apartment, from casa.com.br
Don’t forget the one indispensable item in a home library. Repeat after me: the ladder! (At least while my creaking bones and joints can cope with one.) From jessicagordonryan.com
