A repeat client contacted me after moving into a new house and was in need of storage solutions throughout her home. She has an affinity for built-ins, as her last several houses have had them, so I designed and built several different projects for her.
The first one featured here is additional kitchen storage in what was once an empty alcove. The bottom features two large file drawers on the left and a storage area on right side of the cabinet. It’s topped by a black walnut countertop, which looks nice paired with the custom wainscot backsplash. The cabinet on top features overlay, divided-lite glass doors to match existing the kitchen cabinetry.
The file drawers have metal bars set into the drawer box to accommodate standard size hanging file folders.
This family room wall , originally blank, was completely transformed with a pair of built-ins tied together with a new mantel and custom wainscoting which matches the kitchen built-in. New sconces I installed above the mantle will highlight some of the client’s artwork.
Across from the large living room built-ins is this cabinet set into a nook to house their TV. The cabinets are a full 24” deep for plenty of storage, and a false back in the central section keeps the TV close to the front for easy viewing.
In a room adjacent to the living room is this set of bookshelves.
The final set of bookshelves is set in an upstairs bedroom.
