This is a bit of strange one. I got a lot of the concepts from other hidden bookcase door tutorials, but added some twists of my own.



the concept is a bookcase built-in that can swivel to reveal an entrance to a room.



When my home was constructed I saved some money on interior doors by having archways installed. this is pretty cool for open rooms like my dining room and game room, but for my theater not so much. you really need it dark in there to enjoy a movie. In my head I have pondered adding a regular door, but then I saw an instructable for using IKEA bookcases as a hidden door partition and it clicked what I wanted to do.



Objective was to achieve a hidden door look, mix in my love of Star Wars and close off the theater.



Aprroximate total cost was about $150



(little quick edit here, just to be clear it's $150 not including Han, which if it's a DIY sculpt could be a few bucks or for a custom made or even licensed product could be $$$$$. I will hopefully be adding in some info on how to get at least the face casts, like you see on my wall outside the theater)



update: added a vid of the finished product, it also shows the bookcase out of the archway.
