That drywall corner I would replace with a tear away L-bead.  https://www.trim-tex.com/products/tear-away-l-bead

Anytime wood meets plasterboard and a crisp even seam needs to be made - bead.  Very likely you'll need to float portions of the wall because a seam is somewhere up that vertical.

Example of a false beam cap I used to terminate a wall.  Your bookcase 'edge' would be narrow, but it might be nice to also give it more chunk and L-bend it around that actual structural corner and then L-bead into that.



edit: there are also several architectural reveal and shadow bead varieties too that give larger gaps.  Usually you see them with modern baseboards.  They'll let you see the 'edge/back' of the wood vs the one I used.

Why not have a little Fun with 80/20 [big grin] or more fun

I was thinking something similar as well.

I really like the look of the Finn-Juhl panel walls. You could put a combination of cabinets and shelves. On the left side, open shelving could prevent the need to scribe any kind of filler piece. A mirror could be integrated into the panel as well. Alter the proportions to fit your space.

I like the cut of your jib, Anthony.

I'm looking at panel/rail systems for the basement entertainment area of our MCM ranch.  Vitsoe, Container Store, Menards hanging rails, custom built, etc.

Way too many of them call into the category of "if you have to ask, you can't afford it."  That's the price for period-correct, I suppose.  But since this place isn't even within spitting distance of a 7-digit price tag, there's no way I can justify dropping the kind of money Vitsoe and others would want.

Really like those shelves. Haven’t seen that profile on shelves before.

Here's the area I'm most uncertain how to handle. (Ignore the wire shelving, they were tossed in there at the end of construction as "temporary" around 12 years ago..., I'm determined to have this looking good for the next owners.)  [tongue]

(Attachment Link)

We are discussing replacing the shelves with 2 tall built-ins, then extending the upper carcasses over the mirror to the drywall corner. SWMBO wants to panel the wall below the high cabinets with the same material, making the transition back to drywall exactly at the corner bead.

(Attachment Link)

I can see making a panel like Tom's fillers and then trying to scribe it to the drywall corner, but I'm skeptical I can pull this off without something looking wonky. I haven't checked yet to see if the wall is plumb, but framers...

My preference is to hold the panel back off the corner slightly, but I don't think that will look great either. Haven't wrapped my mind around how I finish off the upper cabinet in relation to the lower panel either, as that would end at the same corner. The easy thing might be a floor-to-ceiling end panel, but that corner is where we make the turn into the closet and I'm reluctant to have a panel stick out into the space.

I appreciate any thoughts on this.

RMW

At the door side, design/build the cabinets so they flush out with the door trim.

The hall side, from the corner come out a distance of 50% of the totals depth(if you post some dimensions I can calculate the distance) from the edge of this panel angle to the left. You can do this in one angle or an angle and a flat.

Something like below.
