Oh now that is to die for, imo.
When we viewed this house, prior to buying it, the owner had floor-to-ceiling book cases in the hall, on the landing, and in the room we now use as our office. I asked him if he'd include them in the sale price, and he said he'd think about it. With all the madness that went on in the long-drawn-out saga of trying to sell our place - it took 8 months - I forgot to remind him, and he took the lot with him when he left :(
I'm not quite floor-to-ceiling in here yet, but I'm working on it ;)
We have a wall of floor to ceiling in our living room now. They are cheap ikea bookshelves though and totally overflowing. I need more shelves! :-) In the new place we are having that built in around the fireplace, I want to do this in the hallway and then there is a built in bookshelf in our bedroom. I thought about floor to ceiling in the hallway but when I saw this I was won over. I was thinking it would be great to hang L's art work and lots of family photos over it.

Oh that sucks! Too bad he didn't leave them.
