Family Room
This would be similar to layout in our family room, with the exception of the step in front of the fireplace (ours would be flush with the floor, but also made out of tile / stone). maximum shelf depth would be 15''. We're considering using RTA kitchen wall cabinets for bookshelves. Is this a good idea? how to match kitchen cabinets with bookshelves (both will be white, but do they have to be exactly the same? In both cases, shaker style would be used. Several options for the fireplace surround (made out of glass tile or stone): 1. floor to ceiling without shelf. 2. floor to ceiling with a shelf. 3. floor up to shelf, with TV above the shelf (not too high). 4. Surround up to shelf and some art above.
Like the floor.
