At Derek James Woodworking, we believe that every space in a home deserves to reflect the personality and style of its inhabitants. Recently, we had the pleasure of working on a custom built-in for a client's sitting room, and we couldn't be more excited to share the details!
A Vision Comes to Life
Our clients wanted to enhance their sitting room with a functional and stylish built-in that would provide both display and storage options. The goal was to create a piece that seamlessly blended with their existing decor while also offering a space to showcase cherished items and seasonal decor.
After discussing their vision, we designed a built-in that featured open shelving for displaying pictures, decorative accents, and seasonal touches, along with closed cabinetry for hidden storage. The combination of these elements not only maximized the space but also added a touch of warmth and charm to the room.
Attention to Detail
One of the standout features of this built-in is the rich wooden top, which adds an inviting warmth to the design. We chose a wood finish that complements the client's decor while providing a durable surface for everyday use. The cabinetry is painted in a soft, neutral tone that brightens the space and creates a clean backdrop for the items displayed on the shelves.
We paid close attention to the craftsmanship, ensuring that every detail, from the shelving design to the hardware, was carefully considered. The black knobs provide a modern contrast against the light cabinetry, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to the overall look.
Seasonal Charm
As you can see in the photos, our clients have begun to personalize their built-in with seasonal decor, including festive pumpkins that perfectly capture the essence of fall. This flexibility allows them to change the look of the space throughout the year, keeping their home fresh and inviting.
Client Satisfaction
We are thrilled to report that our clients love their new built-in! It has quickly become a focal point in their sitting room, and they appreciate how it enhances both the functionality and aesthetics of the space. In fact, they were so pleased with this piece that they've already asked us to create another custom build for their home.
Looking Ahead
At Derek James Woodworking, we take pride in transforming our clients' visions into reality. Each project is a unique opportunity to showcase our craftsmanship and create pieces that make a house feel like a home. We look forward to sharing more about our upcoming projects and the beautiful custom pieces we continue to build for our clients.
