Unique library in the middle of the forest

Its isolated location from the outside world makes Hemmelig Rom in New York (USA) a unique library in the world for book lovers.

Hemmelig Rom Library is located in the middle of the deep forest.

Hemmelig Rom means “secret room” in Norwegian. The library was built as a holiday home in upstate New York. The single-room home, completed in 2015, has more than 1,000 books and is the perfect place to immerse yourself in a quiet, cozy reading space.

Although located in the middle of the forest, Hemmelig Rom is no longer a secret because it attracts media attention. Being alone in the forest and living in the world of books is an experience not easily achieved.

The library has more than 1,000 books.

Photographer Jason Koxvold commissioned architecture firm Studio Padron to create Hemmelig Rom. The library is filled with books on everything from design to photography, from military to economics. Next to the wooden bookshelves is a comfortable chair to sit and relax while reading.

Hemmelig Rom is designed as a holiday home.

More specifically, the library also has beds and a wood-burning stove to keep warm on cold days. The bright colors thanks to the yellow lights of the interior of the room contrast with the unattractive exterior, making the oak library mysterious, a source of inspiration for book lovers around the world.
