Describe the project, what makes it unusual, and/or any outstanding characteristics.
The project demonstrates both our design capabilities and our meticulous attention to detail. We were able to re-create the utilitarian design element from the 70s by giving it a modern face lift! This double-sided walnut veneered wall was created as an open floor plan backdrop, connecting the family area to the dining room and kitchen. The wall was designed to encase several hidden utility features, such as a concealed bathroom entry point, slide-out pantry access, a closet and a camouflaged cold air return vent in the hallway. Each panel was hand selected to seamlessly integrate the wood grain cohesion for a finished look. We also incorporated exposed shelving at the far end to break up the visual continuity, adding depth to the unit.
