Ellen and I designed a large millwork piece (12.5'x10.5') for the East Wall of the living room to house books/TV/Stereo etc. and we decided to ask David Curry at Unique Concepts in Wendell, NC to fabricate it. Unique builds beautiful AV furniture for my company, KONTEK, and I thought they would be a natural for this piece. We took a field trip on Thursday to check on progress and things look fabulous!
There will be one more section on the right hand side. There will be a beautiful slatted cherry sliding door with a pully and counterweight system. The door will cover the TV area and three cubbies below. When opened it will extend beyond the top of the cabinet by 2 feet.
Robbie is building it.
Fred manages the shop.
and David is the designer/owner.
We had a great meeting working out the details of the sliding door track, outlet locations, and wiring access throughout the cabinet. We hope they will finish at the end of next week and be able to install soon. The cabinet is made from formaldehyde free maple and cherry plywood.
Success can eliminate as many options as failure.
