Classic Custom Wine Cellars: How an Expert Designer and Installer in Seattle Can Help You   

Designing a wine cellar requires the help of a skilled and experienced builder. The design will make or break the overall appeal and functionality of your wine room. Moreover, an attractive wine cellar will enhance the resale value of your residential or commercial property.  

Nowadays, modern interiors are a trend because more and more individuals are leaning towards minimalist design. However, some wine collectors still go for a traditional design, which has been the dominant style for many centuries.  

At Custom Wine Cellars Seattle, we still had many clients who preferred a classic custom wine cellar to a modern one. Others chose to combine traditional with contemporary accents and furniture. As one of the top-notch wine cellar designers and installers in Seattle, we found it exciting and fulfilling.     

Why Choose Classic Custom Wine Cellars for Your Home or Business in Seattle? 

Instead of sleek lines, classic custom wine cellars are designed with curved lines, architectural details, and ornaments that exhibit luster. They create a warm ambiance that makes your wine cellar look more inviting. Inspired by 18th and 19th–century European decor, classic custom wine cellars have been increasing in demand in the construction industry.   

Neoclassical was the style popular in the 18th century, but it then became more elaborate in the 19th century with a baroque-style revival. Neoclassical design pulls from curves and classic feeling, but with the baroque style, you get the elements of more ornamental design in addition to that classic feel.  

The color scheme usually consists of a combination of light and dark colors. Brown, red, green, and other warm colors are commonly used in designing traditional wine rooms.   

Classic custom wine cellars designed by a Seattle Expert are perfect for wine collectors who love antiques and elegant furnishings like vases, candle holders, lamps, and chandeliers, which add a vintage look to your wine storage and display area. The stonework is also used to create a traditional feel. Brick is a common feature in classic custom wine cellars in Seattle.  

Other elements commonly incorporated into a classic design are rolling ladders, wooden flooring, wine barrel tabletops, and a lot more. For the lighting, soft and warm illumination will help achieve a traditional feel.

The type of wine rack plays a vital role in achieving the overall style of your classic custom wine cellar. At Custom Wine Cellars Seattle, we offer kits and custom wine racks.  

Kit Wine Racks: An Economical Wine Storage Solution  

We have readily built traditional wood wine racks, which are also known as kit or modular wine racks. We recommend ready-made wine racks for clients who are looking for an economical wine storage solution. Our kit wine racks are made by skillful craftsmen and are available in various styles, shapes, and sizes. They are intended to accommodate standard bottles (750ml), splits, and magnums. 

Kit wine racks are also recommended for beginners in wine collecting. We suggest starting with a few kit wine racks and purchasing more as your wine collection grows.  

Custom Wine Racks     

If your wine room has an irregular shape, and if you have specific requirements, it is wise to customize your wine racks. It allows you to incorporate custom features to enhance the visual appeal of your classic custom wine cellar in Seattle. We had clients who added cigar humidors, cabinets, and drawers.  

For example, you want to utilize the space under your stairs. Kit wine racks will not perfectly fit the sloping ceiling of your space. If you choose custom wine racks, we will create a racking system that perfectly fits the shape of your classic custom wine cellar in Seattle. 

Wooden Wine Rack Materials Recommended by Seattle Master Builders for Designing Classic Custom Wine Cellars  

Our wooden wine racks are manufactured from high-grade wood species, including Mahogany, Redwood, Alder, and Pine.  Some of them are naturally beautiful when left unfinished, while others look more elegant when applied with the right stain.  

Mahogany Wine Racks  

One of the most common types of wood used for wine racks is Mahogany. With reddish to brownish tones, Mahogany is the ideal option if you want a rustic appeal in your classic custom wine cellar in Seattle. You may choose to leave it unfinished or stain it to allow its distinctive wood grains to stand out. Our team has utilized Malaysian Mahogany and Sapele Mahogany in creating classic custom wine cellars. 

Redwood Wine Racks

Another in-demand material in building classic custom wine cellars in Seattle is Redwood, which has a reddish color and striking grain patterns. We usually use Premium Redwood because it exhibits pinkish streaks on the wine racks.     

Alder Wine Racks: Reasons Why They are a Favorite of Many Custom Wine Cellar Owners in Seattle Who Love a Classic Design 

Alder is a type of wood, popularly known as the “chameleon” because of its ability to resemble other types of wood. With tones that range from reddish to brownish, Alder wine racks will make your custom wine cellar in Seattle an inviting and convenient place to entertain guests or host wine-tasting parties.    

You can choose between the two subspecies of Alder: Knotty or Clear Alder. If you go with Knotty Alder, you will see beautiful clusters and knots on your wooden wine racks. If you prefer straight-grain patterns, Clear Alder will suit your needs.  

Pine 

If you prefer to display your wines in lightweight and pale wooden wine racks, Pine is the ideal material to use. It’s even texture and straight-grain patterns will make your classic custom wine cellar in Seattle pleasing to the eye.
