Built-In
Furniture
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. |
