The room
The photographs show pale timber racking that combines single-bottle storage, square bins and diamond bins. Angled display shelves sit under warm downlighting. A glass-topped bench is set into the racking for display, and a curved unit with glass shelves is back-lit.
The joinery and the climate plant were made and installed by the client’s own trades, from the design. Eamonn designed the cellar. He did not build, supply or install it, and he does not carry construction liability for the work.
