Exposed Beams and Built-In Bookshelves

Down the hall, dark wooden beams extend across the living room, drawing the eye from the crystal chandelier to the built-in bookshelves. Custom millwork tucks the television from sight when guests arrive, thus creating a space that's both intentional and effortlessly elegant.
