Custom bookshelf Room
PROPOSAL FOR CUSTOM MILLWORK
Date: November 18, 2025
Prepared For: Dan
Project: Custom Library & Bookcase Build
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Design, fabrication, and installation of a custom wall-to-wall library system. This project transforms the space using modular, architectural-grade cabinetry designed to fit the specific dimensions of the room, accommodating existing windows, doors, and traffic flow.
SCOPE OF WORK
1. Fabrication Strategy
Construction: "Stockton Mill" style sturdy construction using 3/4" cabinet-grade veneer plywood for all structural components (sides, tops, bottoms, shelves).
Face Frames: Solid HARDWOOD face frames for durability and a seamless, built-in appearance.
Backing: 1/4" solid backing on all units for structural rigidity and wall protection.
Modularity: Cabinets are constructed as individual "carcasses" (boxes) to allow for precise installation and future movability if required.
2. The Layout (11 Total Custom Units)
All tall units are 84" Height x 10" Depth.
North Wall (Main Library):
Three (3) custom vertical bookcases (approx. 32-5/8" wide each).
Designed to maximize shelf space while clearing the entry door swing.
East Wall (Entry):
One (1) wide vertical bookcase (36" wide).
Positioned to accommodate the door opening.
West Wall (Window/Console Wall):
Two (2) vertical bookcases (30" wide each) to the left of the window.
One (1) low-profile "Console" bookcase (48" wide) fitted underneath the window.
South Wall (Window Framing):
Two (2) vertical bookcases (25.5" wide) framing the left side of the window.
