Custom Build Ins
By Erika Flugger
With residential and commercial projects it’s important to decide from the beginning
if custom built ins will be a part of the design. By factoring in the size, scale, colors, location and finish (s) of a built in within the framework of the overall design, the shelving will fit seamlessly into the design.
Since built ins can take up a substantial portion of a space, deciding on the right combination of materials and finishes which match the flooring or perhaps an accent color will tie the room together. If the built in is an afterthought long after the design is complete it may be more challenging to match existing colors or move walls if necessary. It's important to hire a millworker or cabinet maker who is an expert with high end finishes as well as has the ability to obscure any hardware.
