A Better Built-in

It’s nice to have a place to drop all your stuff when you walk in the door. It keeps your living space from getting cluttered, and is a great solution for shoes, pet items, etc. It can also, be a great look with a little walnut and some custom fitment. The bench this customer had in place is functional and looked ok, but did not match the upscale feel of the rest of this downtown Winter Haven condo. That’s where I come in.

A new Black-walnut cabinet system and storage bench designed to fill up the space is the perfect solution here. The customer came up with a vision and wanted a slat wall and two cabinets with inset doors they could use to hideaway the clutter. This where their internet access point is so some consideration was made fore this device storage. It was a long one but once the Rubio Monocoat went on and the walnut turned from a muted gray to a deep, rich brown with highly figured wood grain, it was all worth it. The color variation ended up in all the right places and is really something else. The beauty is hard to capture in photos but this is some of my finest work. Customer was thrilled and now that its in use, its something they enjoy every time they come home.
