Let’s Bring Your Vision to Life

Let our design team craft a cellar that matches your taste, space, and your collection — built for beauty, function, and prestige.

Project Concept

This cellar was conceived as a “wine gallery” rather than simple storage: a U-shaped layout that wraps the room in illuminated display bays, balanced with bulk bottle storage and functional base cabinetry. Natural stone adds timeless texture, while the clean-lined millwork and integrated lighting elevate the room into an architectural feature—perfect for entertaining and daily enjoyment.

Our Process

  1. Collection + Capacity Planning – mapped bottle types and display priorities (daily drinkers vs. showcase bottles), then designed storage zones accordingly. 

  2. Climate Engineering – specified the cellar envelope and systems to hold steady cellar conditions (targeting 55–58°F and 50–70% humidity) for proper aging and cork integrity. 

  3. Lighting + Materials Design – designed low-heat, cellar-safe lighting to highlight bottles while minimizing UV exposure risk. 18-L20

  4. Custom Fabrication – built precision millwork and integrated display racking for clean symmetry, durability, and easy access. 

  5. Installation + Commissioning – installed, tested airflow, and verified temperature/humidity stability for consistent performance.


The Outcome

A refined, hospitality-level wine cellar that functions as both serious storage and a statement piece—with dramatic bottle presentation, concealed utility cabinetry, and a calm, warm ambiance. The finished space supports proper long-term preservation through stable temperature/humidity control and thoughtful light protection.

  • Label-forward bottle display on an oak shelf with recessed LED lighting and stone accents in a custom wine cellar
  • Close-up of oak base cabinets with integrated case storage shelves and under-shelf lighting in a stone wine cellar
  • Wide view of a U-shaped custom wine cellar with stone walls, oak cabinetry, and backlit bottle display bays
  • Oak-framed glass wine cellar door beside custom base cabinetry with warm LED lighting and stone walls.
