Hidden by Design
Sometimes what you can’t see in a home is as important as what’s on display.
There’s nothing like having a designer find the cleverest ways to hide your secrets. With a carefully crafted place for everything from rubber duckies to ductwork, your home can always be beautiful to view and functional to use. Teakwood Builders specializes in inventing unique millwork and cabinetry solutions that will bring you pleasure every time you tidy up.
In this whole house renovation, it was important that the young children be able to put their belongings away neatly, but still get to them easily when it was time to play. Custom built-in display shelves open to conceal a deeper toy closet. See more of this project at Loudonville Luxury.
Sometimes you want to be able to look out at the beautiful world. Sometimes you don’t want it to be able to look back. Sliding bathroom vanity mirrors in this lakefront home provide privacy or view as desired. For more on this project see Bolton Landing Modern Cabin.
For all those little objects you need handy between a mudroom and a powder room, Teakwood used the “dead space” and the end of the corridor to create extra storage in a reading nook bench with a hinged lid. For more of this project see Charming Revival.
An elegant cure for family bottlenecks at the refrigerator is this pullout beverage cooler tucked away in the kitchen island. It also frees up storage space in the main fridge. For more of this project, see Sacandaga Lake House.
Damp dish towels dry neatly on this pullout towel bar, which makes good use of a nook between the sink and a pullout waste bin. See more of this project at Modern Farm House.
