The centre
Seventy inches of lit stone
A framed slab of quartzite, lit from behind so the veining glows through it, with fifty-one bottles angled forward against it in three rows. Stone reads warm and solid where a mirror would read as a trick — and at eighteen inches deep, this wall can afford to look solid.
The bands
Symmetrical to the inch
Two hundred bottles laid horizontal in a band that runs the full width above, and another that runs the full width below — the composition banded top and bottom, with the vertical display columns held between them either side of the centre. Nothing is approximately placed. At fifteen feet, approximately is visible from the doorway.
The returns
Quartzite, magnums and three-litres
The wall turns at both ends into stone returns carrying the large formats — a hundred and twenty magnums and twenty-four three-litres, laid flat where their weight belongs. Stone because a magnum on timber eventually tells you it was a magnum.
The surface
A lit table, not a ledge
The work surface carries an integrated light panel, so a bottle set down to decant is lit from beneath rather than from a downlight three metres above. It is the only horizontal surface in the piece and it earns its place.

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 seventy-inch centre panel is fixed at every tier. It is the thing the composition is built around — widen it and the piece stops being a triptych and becomes a wall with a mirror in it. All growth happens in the wings.
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 Triptych began as shop drawing TPWC-001, Revision D — 565 bottles across fifteen and a half feet of wall, in eighteen inches of depth. It is composed the way a triptych is composed: a backlit stone panel framed at seventy inches, two symmetrical wings of vertical display, and stone returns at either end carrying magnums and three-litres. Symmetry at that width is unforgiving — a quarter inch out at one end is visible from across the room. It was engineered before it was ever offered, and the drawing went to Revision D getting there.
15½′
Of wall, symmetrical to the inch
At fifteen feet, approximately is visible from the doorway. Nothing here is approximately placed.
70"
The centre never scales
Fixed at every tier. Widen it and the piece stops being a triptych and becomes a wall with a mirror in it.
How It Works
Designed by us. Installed by yours.
Every edition ships as a complete, engineered kit — crated, numbered, and ready for your contractor.
01
Reserve your edition
Choose your size, specification and delivery. We assign your edition number and open the drawing, engineered to your verified opening.
02
Field verification
Your contractor mounts the channel first, then submits verified opening dimensions before any glass is cut.
03
Fabrication
Posts, racking, glass, lighting and hardware are fabricated to your verified measurements — in parallel, with the longest-lead component setting the schedule.
04
Crated delivery
Everything arrives palletized and labeled by install sequence, with a printed guide and video for each assembly.
05
Your contractor installs
Posts anchor floor to ceiling, the base sets like millwork, and the glass drops into the channel. We’re on call throughout.

Questions
Answered.
Who installs it?
Your own contractor. Every edition is engineered as a 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 Triptych is drawn to your verified opening rather than to a catalogue dimension.
It scales across Fifteen to twenty-one feet wide · nine feet tall, 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.
