wine storage, architect on demand, advice without strings

I became acutely aware of my aversion to “going with the flow” when pregnant with first child. Perhaps, that’s when I realized that every little step matters. It has consequences. It is being observed and emulated. Clearly, I have to make sound choices. I need to be a responsible role model because children love copying their parents.

In that spirit of constant growth, an architect-DIYer, lucky enough to be my own client, I strive to design for evolution, to initiate opportune moments rather than wait for them to happen.  Don’t you?

Design ideas file tip #9 / wine storage:

SHOW, DON’T TELL

Problem: Working on a wine bar project for a client who lacks integrity.

Solution: Resign with conviction — expand instead of shriveling.
Have courage to put the work already done to good use.
Create my own product — an expandable wine rack with visual appeal.

      Thanks, Keith. This is a custom piece. But… I am in the process of negotiating with a company in Spain who are interested in manufacturing it. Join my mailing list and I will send you an update.
