The client asked us to turn the boring, non-refrigerated wine area into a “wow”. The new racks are made from walnut and alder and feature curves with different planes.

The home office / unused wall area was turned into a climate-controlled wine room holding over 700 bottles. The glass wall is the CAVEA so it is air-tight and impervious to the sunlight coming in from the other side of the room.

Our client wanted a large wine room for storage and entertaining. She did not use the home office anymore so we got to work! This project is the 2016 Ruby Award Winner from the GCAISD. It was featured in the Houston Chronicle in 2020.
