Storage for an impressive collection
Vicki and her partner, Brind, had a very special piece of storage in mind for their extensive array of books. They wanted a statement bookcase for their loft space, but the trouble was, they would need a bespoke solution to make it work around their sloping ceilings.
After looking at a few fitted furniture providers, they were confident that Sharps was the team to make their transformation happen.

Vicki and Brind's Design Expert Says:
“Fitted bookcases are an amazing way of maximising the potential of awkward spaces and this is just what Vicki did with her beautiful loft space design.
Our Element range gives it a crisp, elegant simplicity, adding a subtle Scandi style with the Lava Driftwood finish.
And using our unique Sharps Space+ formula, Vicki’s new storage reaches from corner to corner to ensure no space is wasted. It’s a fantastic way to showcase their collection.”

Q&A Vicki and Brind Said:
How did you find Sharps?
Sharps is a well known brand and it was one of a few that we looked at.
Why did you choose Sharps?
We had a unique requirement for a tailor-made bookcase in a large unusual space. The Sharps salesman gave us the most confidence that our needs would be met.
What was the main issue that you were trying to solve with Sharps fitted furniture?
We wanted to transform the 20’x16’ room with a high sloping ceiling into a proper library.
Were there any awkward spaces in your room?
Yes, the ceilings are high and the shape of the library wall is trapezoid.
Tell us about your fitting experience?
Sharps delivered all the shelving made to size and the shelving was expertly installed. The Senior Designer and the Installer were very professional and courteous and thorough – a pleasure to have working here.
How would you describe your interior style and how does your finished design reflect this?
Our style is Scandinavian Modern. The finished design is elegant and soft but with distinct colours and design.
What do you love most about your Sharps furniture?
The room is now an inviting space where we can relax, read, listen to music and chat. The Sharps shelving is now the heart of the room and we have turned our armchairs and coffee table to face the bookcase!
What is your favourite part of your fitted furniture?
The room is transformed into a space which is both extremely pleasing and practical. It has an architectural elegance.
What are you most looking forward to making beautifully organised?
Under the bookshelves are fantastic cupboards with spring-doors. These very effectively and attractively conceal all our lever arch files.
What furniture interiors did you choose and why?
We wanted the bookcase to set the tone of the whole room. It has done this successfully.
Why would you recommend Sharps?
Quality and Customer Service have been excellent.
