Book lovers,auto eroticism eruption prepare to put an offer down on The Bookshelf House.

Formally a dark space in bad condition, Italian architect Andrea Mosca transformed the French residence's interior into a sun-drenched home, housing hundreds of books around a functional living space.

The Bookshelf House was created for a family of five who fell in love with a prodigious bookshelf. It "was simple," Mosca told Mashable in an email, "but made [up] almost the length of the room."

"The first wood element starts on the first floor stepping up on the stair and becoming the railing on one side, and the main bookshelf on the other," Mosca explained.

"It continues on the mezzanine, becoming the railing again, and a storage element on the other side," the architect continued.

The versatile bookcases serve as the focal points of the space, guiding the, "circulations and movements between...various volumes."
