... ESPECIALLY if you already love white rooms. But before I show it off, allow me a quick comment. In the past decade or so we've seen a lot of people paint their furniture, especially those who prefer airy, contemporary rooms in a neutral palette. And don't get me wrong... I love painted furniture and some of my favorite projects have been painted plain white. But dark, rich brown wood has its place in light-colored rooms. It makes a beautiful foil against the white walls, and it can have complex grains which bring texture and interest to what would otherwise be a bland space. Walnut is one of my favorite dark woods. It's got a chocolatey purple undertone and a grain pattern which, while subtle compared to oak, can often include arched patterns that add an Art Deco touch. Case in point: our latest project. A custom built-in AV cabinet in a bright, contemporary living room. Or do you like it better without doors? It's really hard to capture the beauty of this wood in a photograph, because grain patterns move with the light. They glimmer and shimmer. But here's my best attempt: There's a satiny ribbon effect that really catches the eye. By the way, the shelves are adjustable in height to allow you to store larger items like stereo equipment or a hidden TV. I love the versatility of this piece. It could be a pantry, a clothes closet, a display case... you name it. And it's eight feet tall and four feet wide, so it's much more substantial in real life. If you've got a modern room that needs a little architectural interest, give us a call. We'll help you design a piece that changes your space... and lets you store all your stuff out of sight... so you can live a clutter-free, stress-free life.
