Like many projects, this one started with a simple wish from a client: turn an unused butler’s pantry between the dining room and kitchen into a fully functioning, climate-controlled wine room for his extensive collection of valuable vintages. But like many projects, the wine room is connected to the dining room which is connected to the sitting room which is connected to the entry. When you touch one room, it only makes sense to reinvigorate them all. We overhauled the entire ground floor of this lovely home. For the wine room, I worked with Vintage Cellars in Southern California to create custom wine storage embedded with LED lighting to spotlight very special bottles. The walls are in a burgundy tone and the floors are porcelain tiles that look as if they came from an old wine cave in Tuscany. A bubble light chandelier alludes to sparkling varietals. But as mentioned, the rest of the house came along for the ride. Since we were adding a climate-controlled wine room, the brief was to turn the rest of the house into a space that would rival any hot-spot winery in Napa. After choosing new flooring and a new hue for the walls, the entry became a destination in itself with a huge concave metal mirror and custom bench. We knocked out a half wall that awkwardly separated the sitting room from the dining room so that after-dinner drinks could flow to the fireplace surrounded by stainless steel pebbles; and we outfitted the dining room with a new chandelier. We chose all new furniture for all spaces. The kitchen received the least amount of work but ended up being completely transformed anyhow. At first our plan was to tear everything out, but we soon realized that the cabinetry was in good shape and only needed the dated honey pine color painted over with a cream white. We also played with the idea of changing the counter tops, but once the cabinetry changed color, the granite stood out beautifully. The final change was the removal of a pot rack over the island in favor of design-forward iron pendants. Photo by: Genia Barnes

We installed Vintique custom wine racking CA in this Mediterranean style wine enclave; a sustainable racking type made from reclaimed wine barrels and fermentation tanks. Vintique wine racks can imbue any wine storage space with a unique flair and enhanced beauty, and are an eco-friendly racking choice. This custom wine cellar in Chino Hills, East Los Angeles, California is comprised of Vintique custom wine racks. Vintique wine racks are crafted from reclaimed wine barrels and fermentation tanks. This makes them an eco-friendly wine storage solution; one rich with wine history. This Under the stairs wine room utilizes the cascading shape of a typical under-stair space. Additionally, The walls follow the curve of the staircase above, so the racks themselves were curved to accommodate the unique shape of the space. A custom wine cellar design such as this takes the unique shapes and features within a room and utilizes them to create a truly special wine storage room.

Sleek and sophisticated has never looked better. This wine wall is a the center of the home, having both aesthetic and practical value. Lit with LED strips, illuminating the area, resulting in a refined and resolved look

You'd be forgiven for thinking this was the interior of some up market boutique bottle shop, but you'd be wrong. The cellar within this single dwelling, along with the adjacent billiards room, accounts for a large proportion of the house. Naturally occurring sandstone was cut away (and reused as landscaping) so that the cellar could be nestled within the rock. Photo credit: Marcus Clinton

This stunning glass enclosed wine cellar houses LUMA Wine Racks made by Architectural Plastics, Inc. These racks are made entirely from furniture grade, crystal clear acrylic. The wine cellar acts as a transparent partition between the kitchen and adjoining den.

Such a fun project! Crafted from underutilized space in the basement, this wine cellar was a dream of our client. Travertine stacked stone on the walls give a clean, yet rustic feel, very fitting for the space. A special drop ceiling provided the perfect opportunity to highlight the space with extra lighting. A custom built uncorking station completes this conditioned wine cellar.
