For many storage needs, a store-bought cabinet is just not going to do the job. Homes have their own quirks and funky corners where a standard cabinet does not fit or look right, and it can be tough to find a cabinet that is in the style you want and has the space or functionality you require. When Marvelous Woodworking creates a custom cabinet, we work with the client to design a piece that will hold all they need it to and match their home’s look and style.
We build custom cabinets for many different situations and uses. Many of our clients need a dual-purpose unit for their living rooms or home offices. One client wanted a cabinet that could be used both for office storage and organization and as a pseudo changing table, as their home office also doubled as a nursery for their grandchildren. Where we see the biggest custom cabinet need is for a good place to set up an entertainment system. Often we come into a house that is wonderfully furnished but has an awkward piece of furniture where they have put their T.V. with cables hanging out all over the place. A custom cabinet is a perfect solution. We can create a cabinet that has separate spaces for each component of your entertainment system, from T.V. screen to gaming equipment, and make an accessible place to hide untidy-looking wires and cables.
The options for custom cabinets are many, to say the least. We have made units 20 feet wide that reach the ceiling! Depending on preference and need, as well as placement of windows, doors, and outlets, the size of a custom cabinet can be just about anything that can fit in your room. Cabinetry can include closed cabinets, shelves, drawers, open spaces, and custom storage designed for specific items you have.
As for the look of your cabinets, the sky is the limit: paint, finishes, veneer wood surfaces and stains are all possible. However, you will want a piece that complements your home. When we create a custom cabinet, we take cues from the architectural details of your house, such as fluted moldings, crown moldings, angles, or raised panels. Other cabinetry your own will also influence how we design the look of the piece. The result is a cabinet that blends right in with the rest of your furniture and complements your home’s design style.
Designing a custom cabinet involves many complicated components, but the work is worth it, as the end result is a cabinet that not only fits your needs perfectly but your home as well. We at Marvelous Woodworking have built many custom cabinets to meet the storage and display needs of our clients; we would love to help you create the perfect solution to your storage problem too!
