A thousand-bottle cellar carved from an under-stairs void.
The work
Temperature and humidity controlled, the cellar required full coordination of custom millwork, electrical, and plumbing — making purposeful use of space most homes waste. Mahogany finishes tie directly to the home's existing architecture.
The goal wasn't for it to read as an addition. It needed to feel like it had always been there.

"It looks like it's always been part of the house. Which was exactly the point."
