built-in bookshelves

i saw this picture of the built-in bookshelves and i thought it would look great in our living room.  only problem is how do i build them?  i am not handy and neither is my hubby.  never fear, i found a solution at ikea.  billy bookshelves!  i am planning to put a row of bookshelves in the back of the living room and put the couch in front of it.  this will give the room a focal point and some architectural appeal.  i can't wait to get started on this and see the finished product.  i am calling the living room our "library / game room."

no, this is not our living room.  i wish!  this is what i would like it eventually to look like, or at least somewhat close to it.

the billy bookshelves at ikea.  not built-in, but hey, i still think it will look nice  :)
