Just Right for Your Home: Custom Built Wall Units

Fireplace Mantel by Johns Workbench LLC at CustomMade.com

A custom made built-in project is a great opportunity to put your signature style into your home.  If you have a unique vision for any room in your house or a challenging space that defies all efforts to squeeze in a prefabricated unit, CustomMade artisans can create built-in TV wall units, cabinets, mantels, or entertainment centers that will fit the bill perfectly. Check out these custom built wall units for a little design inspiration.

Your Home is Your Sandcastle

Need a metaphorical castle to mark your space?  Need a real castle?  A customer approached Johns Workbench LLC with a very specific request: she wanted a sandcastle in her living room.  This fireplace mantel looks like a perfect sandcastle and is even finished with real sand.  The mantel’s swinging doors can conceal the fireplace when it is not in use. Artisan John Tobin writes, “If you have a desire for something unusual and unique, I will work with you to achieve your vision.”  You really can turn your castle-in-the-air into something real.

Decorating Ironically

Decorating ironically is difficult with retail furniture.  “Retro” and “Shabby Chic” can cover many sins, but poor craftsmanship and low quality are not among them.  If you’d like modern amenities with a throwback style, take a look at this built-in home theater by Rosemont Design Group inspired by the design of a 1940′s radio.  You can have your flat-screen TV and your nostalgia, too, in one custom quality project.  (I am fairly confident that a built-in wall unit for housing state-of-the-art audio-visual components that is designed to look like a vintage radio can be considered ironic.  Since Alanis Morissette, however, the bar for irony has been set pretty low).

Demanding Spaces

Create built-ins for a converted sunroom in a historic home that will accommodate a TV cabinet, a writing desk, and ample storage.  Who can complete this mission?  Artisan Custom Bookcases created these custom built-ins with antique glaze that blend perfectly with the historic home’s décor and meet the current needs of a dynamic family.  (Look carefully at the picture and you can also see a built-in window seat that accommodates HVAC ductwork).
