2025 Wood Diamond Award Utility/Storage: Closet/Dressing Room Gillpatrick Woodworks Second Place

Gillpatrick Woodworks is ROOTED in the belief that woodworking can inspire emotion in the process of creation, and in the end product. We believe that happens with exceptional design, craftsmanship, and technology. Through that, we will strive to continue to build a company known for excellence in woodworking of all types, ability to solve problems, and done with integrity.

Describe your project, what makes it unusual, and/or any outstanding characteristics.

On this closet, our goal was to create a space that felt refined and tailored, while also being highly functional. We pulled in elements from the primary bathroom—using the same walnut paneling and inset cabinetry—to maintain a consistent look throughout the suite. To make the space practical, we incorporated a balanced mix of drawers and open shelving. We also built a custom upholstered bench into the center of the cabinetry, which adds both storage and seating—an efficient solution for a more compact footprint.
