When it comes to home storage solutions, custom cabinetry often gets relegated to the kitchen or bathroom. However, with a little creativity, cabinets can be utilized in many unexpected spaces throughout your home. Here are a few of our favorite underutilized places:

Home Office/Library

A home office is a great place to let creativity flow when it comes to custom cabinetry. Depending on what your needs are there are many different ways to design this kind of space.

Library style with plenty of space for books.

Double desk set up, works well when multiple family members work from home or even a children’s craft/homework room.

A design like this is perfect for displaying items.

Built-In Entertainment Unit

This Great Room TV area is a great example of adding custom millwork to other spaces in the home. Even without cabinet boxes we were able to create a spot for the TV that matches the finishes in the kitchen.

Coat Closet

When it comes to unexpected cabinetry, this coat closet is one of our favorites! This is a great place in the home to add unique details like the antique mirror glass. Taking what could be a basic storage space in your home and creating a beautiful furniture piece that adds character.

Dog Wash/Kennel

A space for the furry friends is often overlooked, and can be much needed! This custom built-in kennel cabinet designed for our client provides a safe and cozy place for a pup to hang out while you’re away.

Dining Room China Cabinet

Moving closer into the kitchen, a dining room built-in makes for extra storage while creating a beautiful furniture piece.

Banquette Seating

An often forgotten or overlooked way to add extra storage into a space is a custom banquette! These are perfect for bringing more seating and storage in a tighter dining room space.

Walk-In-Closet

If you’re someone who loves having an organized closet and the basic wire shelves and rods aren’t cutting it anymore – custom closet cabinetry is a must!

Murphy Bed

A multi-purpose space, adding a built-in Murphy Bed provides you with an extra bed for overnight guests and a great spot to store items like extra linens and bedding.
