A Gallery of Design Ideas for Built-In Furniture In Your Home

Here are some of the best examples of built-in furniture and cabinetry for nearly every room in the house. Jim Tolpin treats you to a room-by-room survey of unique design solutions and strategies that you can use to add functional and delightful built-ins to your home. Built-in furnishings offer many advantages over freestanding furniture: They are generally less expensive to build than stand-alone furniture of the same type and size. They give you great latitude in designing the look and function of your interior spaces -- you are not limited to designing around existing furniture pieces. You can also maximize the use of the most unusual spaces while creating an effective and aesthetically pleasing design solution.
