The stone bay
Stone lit from behind
Behind the walnut fins, a field of rough stone glows, lighting the bottles from the back and the fin edges from the side. The bottles lie label-forward on paired steel rods, so every label reads against the light.
The ledge
Pour without moving
A hand-laid terracotta ledge runs straight through the racking at counter height. Above it, angled trays present the bottles; below it, the storage. You can pull, open and pour in the same step.
The island
Tile, walnut, and a seat
A small terracotta-topped island stands in the room alongside the L-shaped counter and peninsula seating. It turns a wine room into a tasting room: somewhere you bring people, not just bottles.
The room
Hill Country, all the way through
Reclaimed beams, lime plaster, saltillo floors and walnut joinery, entered through a black steel divided-lite door. Warm rather than minimal, for a house in Dripping Springs, Fredericksburg or Westlake.
FINISH
The Mesa
Four ways
Tap a finish to sweep it across the room. As shown is included; the alternates change the timber and metal and leave the design untouched. The edition is ten across every finish, so a finish no one else chooses can be yours alone.

Edition of Ten
Reserve your edition.
Three decisions: how deep it runs, which specification, and how you’d like it delivered. Cooling, structural load and engineering are ours — they’re never a question you have to answer.
The Mesa is shown at about 205 bottles. It is drawn to your room on commission rather than sold in sizes: the terracotta ledge, the backlit bays and the island hold their proportion, and capacity follows the room. Counts are confirmed at specification.
Included in price
Have this configuration sent to you
We'll email the specification exactly as you've built it. No obligation, no drawings released.
Pricing shown is indicative. Final price is confirmed after field verification of your opening.
What Design Plans includes
Full architectural drawings dimensioned to your verified opening — plan, elevations, sections and details — plus structural load calculations, a complete material schedule listing every component, finish and quantity, and the cooling specification sized for your configuration. A licensed set, not a sketch.
Materials are not supplied at this level. Our racking, glass and cooling partners sell through authorised dealers only, so if you’d like us to supply and crate the components, choose Design + Materials.
Credited if you upgrade. The full plans fee is credited toward Design + Materials or Design + Build if you move up within twelve months.
Licensed for one build at one address. Not transferable and not for resale.
Provenance
Drawn, then built.
The Mesa is a concept from the Prestige studio: a Hill Country tasting room in walnut and hand-laid terracotta, under reclaimed beams and lime plaster. A continuous tile ledge runs through the label-forward racking at counter height, so you can pour, taste and pull the next bottle from the wall without moving.
About 205 bottles as shown, with a tasting counter, peninsula seating and a small tile island. It is drawn on commission, to your room, entered through a black steel divided-lite door.

Questions
Answered.
Who installs it?
Your own contractor. Every edition is engineered as a complete wine cellar kit — components arrive crated, numbered and drawn to your verified opening, with an installation set a competent carpenter can work from. No specialty glazier, no factory crew flown across the country. In Texas we install it ourselves if you’d rather.
Will it fit my space?
Almost certainly, and it won’t need to be a standard size.
The Mesa is drawn to your verified opening rather than to a catalogue dimension.
It scales across Drawn to your room · tasting room under a beamed ceiling, and the proportions hold at any size in that range.
What happens if a measurement is wrong?
The sequence is built to prevent it. The channel and framing ship first and are installed before anything is cut. Your contractor then returns signed, verified opening dimensions, and only then is the glass cut and the racking finalised. Nothing expensive is fabricated against a number nobody has checked.
What’s included, and what isn’t?
Included: the architectural drawing set, all racking and display components, glass, lighting, hardware, the cooling unit sized for your configuration, and crated delivery. Not included: the wall or enclosure itself, electrical supply, and finish work by others. The drawing set states exactly which trades you need and what each is responsible for.
How long does it take?
It varies with the design — components are fabricated in parallel, and the longest one sets the schedule. Millwork runs eight to twelve weeks; metalwork two to four; frameless glass and mirrors about two; the cooling unit about two. Insulated glass doors are the long lead at twelve to sixteen weeks. Your drawing set states the schedule for your exact configuration before anything is fabricated.
What happens if the cooling fails?
Cooling is the one part that fails invisibly — you don’t find out until the wine does. Every edition is sized and specified by us rather than chosen from a list, and Prestige Care covers it from there. If a unit needs a technician the $500 service call is credited toward a replacement.
Is it really only ten?
Yes. Ten of each design, each numbered and recorded in the registry, and then the edition closes for good. The drawings aren’t reissued and the design isn’t rerun under another name.
Can I change the materials?
Yes — that’s Custom, available on any edition. Species, stain, metal finish, glass and stone are chosen with us rather than from a list, and layout or proportions can change too. Still numbered, still part of the edition, and priced above the authored finishes.
