It'd be too much if the bookshelf and lamp were in the same house with the book chair and book staircase. Might be a little to "matchy".

I guess ... but, what if each object were made out of a different genre?? With a theme?? Like, the lamp made out of books with "light" in the title??

I know, I know .... still to matchy. Sigh.
