Two of my favorite design elements would be a wall of shelves and a wall of art. So why not combine them to create something really special. Just loving this statement wall in the home of photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin.
And here’s a larger shot of their duplex featuring more floor to ceiling bookshelves and a Yves Klein coffee table. OH to be a rich bohemian New Yorker!

I am serious love with their entire home!
Ohh love all of this. Its part lodge, park loft.
HA! it is a bit lodge-like.
I personally wouldn’t have chosen the rustic wood bookshelves, but it’s an interesting contrast to the floors and coffee table.
Love the art shelves, not so much into the rustic bookshelves, but the eclectic mix of furniture is super interesting!
Yeah baby! Cool pad .Now let’s all sing along to the Dandy Warhols :” Cause I like you,
Yeah, I like you,
And I`m feelin so Bohemian like you,
Yeah, I like you,
Yeah, I like you,
And I feel wahoo, wooo”
Lol

OB. SESSED. I’m all about big gallery walls, but the shelves just took it to a whole new level. Hm. Scheming how to incorporate into my own house! It’s truly unique!
That space just looks so inviting…love the wall of shelves and art too!
I love that art wall. How clever!
I’m happy to see that Sabra has already seen this, because this is SO her too! How very interesting to put art in the niches of bookshelves like that! A collage of sorts. But of course also loving the mix of clean white with ethnic textiles and wood. Yum!
Um yes, where do I sign up to be a rich Bohemian new yorker??? I think I completely zeroed in on that art piece with the skull…it’s RAD…
Given Inez van Lamsweerde’s whole “look”, this place seems like a perfect extension of style. Very cool. And is that an orange tree I spy?
WOW- I need shelves like these ASAP!! Great post
