My small collection of books are very important to me. These are books that helped me. Have motivated me. Have entertained me. Have awakened me. And these very special books take up a small part of my office in my home.

In fact, the great Jim Rohn used to have saying (about 40 years ago) that went like this… “Most homes over $250,000 have a library. I wonder why that is?” This was a great saying and a lesson in the importance of reading to advance one’s life’s experiences and income potential.

Now, I’ve also seen some impressive home libraries over the years. And as a Realtor I’ve seen a my share of impressive libraries as well.

But feast your eyes on this particular home library. Now this is a person with serious penchant for books! I came across this incredible photo while looking for ideas on designing home libraries.

I’ve never seen anything like it!

According to many leading home designers and home builders, a home office is becoming one of a home’s ‘must have’ features. As people do more work away from the office and kids do more work outside of the library, the home office is growing in importance.

Personally, I’ve had an office in my various apartments and homes for over 30 years. But since the proliferation of the internet in the late 90’s, many jobs now have a more ‘mobile’ nature to them and thus people are working more and more from home.

There’s also some evidence that home offices can make a home more attractive to buyers.

Here is a great article by Amy Hoak of MarketWatch.com where she details the surveys and facts behind the reasons for the growing number of home sellers and home buyers who are incorporating home offices into their living spaces.

So now that we have established the near necessity of incorporating a home office space, the next question is – what could it look like! I’ll share with you today a great article full of photos and ideas of some great home office spaces. This article is comes to us from OneKindDesign.com and you can see it here.
