How do you turn a boring wall into a work of art! Well-designed custom built-ins combine the best of form and function while providing tons of storage and a classic look to your home. Let the design team at Parker Design Build Remodel design custom built-ins to elevate your old living room.
Custom Built-Ins
There is something classic about a home with built-in furniture. Unlike freestanding furniture, which can be moved, built-ins require purposeful design since they will likely be used for many years to come. So, it is important to work with a design team that understands your goals. It may also help to determine how you will use the new space. Will it showcase accessories, provide storage for media equipment, or serve as a convenient storage area for the kids toys? By evaluating your purpose first, you will be able to incorporate all of the elements you desire.
Storage
Built-ins can provide wonderful long-term storage solutions. You can hide or display what’s on your built-in shelves, based on your goals. If your home is full of the sundries that come with having small children, you can add a few doors to quickly and easily store items to make a room look neat in a hurry. If you have a home theater system, perhaps your built-ins can help you hide equipment and wiring.
Display
Perhaps you’re a collector? Your built-in can be designed with shelves, a few pieces of well-placed glass, and lighting to help you display a special piece or an entire collection. Accent the entire wall with overhead or recessed lighting to create a warm display.
Form & Function
Incorporating additional elements into your built-ins helps bring the form and function together. Adding a TV and sound bar allow you to enjoy the room, play music, watch the big game for entertaining. Add built-ins around an existing fireplace to create a unique, custom design.
The beauty of built-ins is that they can be whatever you want because they are specifically customized to meet your needs. The design team at Parker Design Build Remodel can help you design built-ins that are practical and beautiful! Get a free consultation today!
