Library Porn

I've always considered Karl Lagerfeld to be one of those weird, off-putting, head-stuck-up-his-own-ass fashion-gays that I want nothing to do with, but now that I've seen his library, maybe he's not such a bad guy? It's heavenly! (And if that's where he keeps his books, just think of the room where he stores his fans! Come on, you know he has one.)

Also, see how the books are stacked vertically instead of in a row? There's probably some pretentious/crazy design reason for it in his case, but I totally feel it, because I'm neurotic (?!? Me?!?!) about book condition, and standing them up definitely wears the bottom edges and spine. Alas, unlike Mr. Lagerfeld, I don't have the space to indulge that predilection for the majority of my books; rows are much more space-efficient.
