A custom entertainment center and bookshelf

This client wanted space for a new flat panel TV and the associated equiment for an entertainment center on one wall and room for a stereo on the adjacent wall.  At the same time they wanted plent of space for their many books.

We played with the design and angled both the base units and the corner display shelving to make the units transition nicely into the room.  This avoided having stark, box-like edges adjacent to the doorway opening.

Before

The left hand unit will hold the flat screen TV and associated electronics with no wiring showing.  The two drawers are sized to hold DVDs or VCR tapes.  We set the heigh of the unit such that it "breaks" the visual line between the top of the door and the window on the right.  We custom made all molding and trim for these units.

The right side unit had to be made to accomodate the opening of the grill for the air return and to hold the stereo and speakers, again with minimal wiring showing.

The full backs of both units were painted the same color as the walls to soften the look of the units.
