Custom Bookshelves and Libraries

Create Your Own Sanctuary Of Stories

There’s something deeply personal about a beautifully crafted bookshelf – it’s more than just storage; it’s a testament to your life’s stories, interests, and adventures. At Heritage Furniture, we understand that each book holds meaning, and every collection deserves a home that’s just as special as the treasures it houses.

Our journey with timber bookshelves begins in the heart of Tasmania’s forests, where we hand-select exceptional timber that will transform into your future heirloom. Each solid timber bookshelf is born from our deep respect for the wood’s natural character, allowing its unique grain patterns and subtle variations to enhance the final piece.

Custom Bookshelf

Whether you’re seeking a standalone timber bookshelf for your lounge, a bookcase for the study or dreaming of a complete custom library that spans floor to ceiling, our craftsmen approach each project with the same dedication to excellence. We carefully consider the practical aspects – the perfect shelf height for your collection, the ideal depth to accommodate various book sizes, and the structural integrity that ensures your bookshelf will stand proud for generations. The beauty of choosing a custom bookshelf lies in the details. Want hidden drawers for precious items? Adjustable shelves to accommodate your growing collection? Or perhaps integrated lighting to showcase your first editions? Our design process revolves around your vision, and we delight in bringing those personal touches to life. We can even incorporate a built-in bar section to house the perfect libation to accompany your reading reveries.

Bespoke Tasmanian Timber Library

For those aspiring to create a complete timber library, we offer a comprehensive service that transforms your space into a sanctuary of knowledge and beauty. Our custom library bookshelves can incorporate rolling ladders, wraparound corners, integrated desks, and comfortable reading nooks – all crafted from the finest sustainable Tasmanian timber.

Ethically Sourced Materials

Our commitment to sustainability means we’re not just crafting furniture; we’re preserving a legacy. Our family takes pride in our deep connection to Tasmania’s forests. We carefully source our timber through Sustainable Timber Tasmania, ensuring every piece meets the highest environmental standards. With years of experience working with local species, we honour these precious materials by transforming them into furniture that celebrates natural beauty, longevity, and commitment to forest preservation.

Collaborate With Craig Howard And Son

The creation of your bookshelf or library is a collaborative journey. We invite you to visit our workshop, where you can run your hands along the timber we’ve selected, discuss design possibilities, and watch as traditional craftsmanship meets modern precision. You’ll see firsthand how we honour the natural characteristics of each piece of wood, ensuring grain patterns flow seamlessly across your custom library installation.

Distance is no obstacle to owning a piece of Tasmania’s finest craftsmanship. We collaborate closely with you to bring your vision to life, regardless of your location. Our expertise in shipping and installation ensures that we can deliver and install your custom piece, whether you’re in Tasmania or anywhere in the world.

We are also open to travelling to you if visiting our Tasmanian workshop is not an option. You’re welcome to contact us to begin creating your custom timber reading sanctuary.

Together, we’ll craft a bookshelf or library that tells your story while preserving ours.
