Cary Street Library & Custom Millwork

A Formal Study in Classical Detail and Craftsmanship

The Cary Street project is a masterful execution of a complete, formal library transformation, defined by its extensive and ornate custom millwork. The focal point is a magnificent, floor-to-ceiling bookcase crafted from rich, dark-stained cherry. This architectural centerpiece features a gracefully bowed front and is adorned with a wealth of classical details, including fluted pilasters, carved rosettes, and intricate dentil molding. 

To create a fully immersive and cohesive environment, matching raised-panel wainscoting wraps the entire room in the same elegant style. The deep integration of the structure into the home’s framing showcases the meticulous planning and craftsmanship involved in this stately design. This project transforms a simple room into a sophisticated and timeless study, steeped in traditional character and luxury.
