Our approach

Our interior design team creating innovative book displays and classroom reading areas for schools.

Working with you

Reading is at the heart of everything that we do. We'll work with you to create a library design that meets the unique needs of your visitors and inspires them to read for pleasure. We work in partnership with school and library staff at every step, from the design to the installation and fitting, as well as book supply if needed.

Made to order

We're committed to reducing waste, and one way to keep our services more sustainable is to work with ethical, UK-based suppliers whose products are made to order. Our items are designed and crafted by some of the best people in the industry. Our bookshelves, reading dens, kinderboxes and seating feature customisable colour finishes and fabrics, so you receive a truly bespoke product every time.
We're committed to reducing waste with our library design service, with all book displays and accessories made to order.
Maintaining up to date with the latest innovations for library furniture for primary schools and secondary.

Expertly designed

Excelling in multiple design disciplines, our interior designers have degrees in interior design and product design engineering, and regularly attend exhibitions to keep up to date with the latest trends and innovations in library design. Their library and furniture designs reflect the requirements of teachers and librarians and the vision to create fulfilling learning zones where children can enjoy books, whatever their unique needs. We're used to working with tricky spaces and challenging budgets, including with SEN schools.

From the schools

"The service from Peters was superb from start to finish. The designer interpreted our ideas well, and produced an appealing, original and functional library design which looks fantastic."

Mary Cummins, School Business Manager, The Oaks Primary School

"Peters has been instrumental in creating a library space that the school and the children are proud of; a space that will encourage pupils to develop a lifelong love of reading. We would encourage any school considering making changes to their library to give Peters a call."

Your design questions, answered

How do you organise a primary school library?

You should use colourful signage and book displays to help organise your primary school library, sorting books by topic and reading level to help children identify different sections.

What makes a good book display?

Good book displays should be engaging, eye-catching, and colourful, showcasing a variety of books from different genres. Utilise our library design service to create inspirational and innovative displays.
