Modern Design is Becoming Extraordinarily Popular for Custom Wine Cellars

More and more we are being asked about modern wine cellars. It used to be that wine cellars were the preview of caves–dark, ancient, catacombs where the old world stored precious wine in the safest place available. As people began to bring wine cellars up, into homes and commercial spaces, the design aesthetic was still primarily traditional, befitting a practice steeped in history.

But now wine enjoyment, style, and design have entered the modern world. No longer is it relegated to dark caves and basements. We call them cellars, but they can be as public as you wish. And so if the modern design is the choice in your home or business, you want a contemporary design for your wine cellar that matches your tastes. These are open, airy, often made with lots of glass, and lit with LED lighting.

What makes a modern wine cellar? Modern wine cellars stray from the traditional style of dark, warm wood racking and all wood furniture. Rather, they infuse metal and glass into the racking, design, door, and furnishing to create sleek lines and clean design.

Modern Wine Cellar Designs for Everybody’s Taste 

Gone are the days when if someone mentions “wine cellar”, one would think of a poorly lit room hidden under a basement. Today, wine cellars can be as public as you want them to be. With the advancements in technology, are opting for more modern and sleeker designs when it comes to their wine cellars. But what makes a modern wine cellar design and what makes it different from other designs? Read below to know more from our professionals.   

1. What is Modern Design in terms of Wine Cellar Interior Design 

The word “modern” can mean a lot of things to different people. In the wine cellar industry, having a modern wine cellar means your design utilizes little use of wood and veers more towards the stainless steel and metal side. A lot of glass is also used and lightings dwell more on the industrial–like designs and setups. Due to the many incarnations of modern design, it is easily confused with other design styles like contemporary and transitional. It is advised for wine cellar owners to think thoroughly and be wise with their decision with regards to the theme and interior design of their wine space. 

2. What Makes Modern Wine Cellar Design Different and What are its Characteristics? 

Because modernism is comprised of different designs such as Gothic, Renaissance, and Victorian, different characteristics of modern style can be found in a lot of different styles, such as ‘contemporary’. 

Contemporary, which means “of the moment,” utilizes designs of the present but at the same time pays homage to designs of the past. Due to this, contemporary design is constantly evolving. This differs from modern design because modern design is solidly defined no matter the era. As contemporary design adapts say with the color trends of the present time, modern design sticks with monochromatic tones and minimalistic designs. 

 

Transitional design, on the other hand, is a design style that often gets confused with modern design because it gives the cellar a modern look, allows the room to blend in seamlessly with the other surrounding areas but gives the whole cellar a more traditional vibe rather than a modern one.

How to Achieve the Modern Wine Cellar Design Look Everybody Wants? 

A lot of things have to be taken into consideration before achieving that distinct and exquisite modern look for your wine cellar. Luckily, a lot of options are available in the market for consumers to add to their interior design.     

Metal over Wood 

One step to get that modern look is to opt for more metal features to use for your wine cellar.

The finish that is used on steel materials such as chrome or brushed gives the cellar a cleaner look. Wine cellar owners can utilize the use of metal even on small details such as table legs or the material used for the racking system.  

Less is More with Modern Wine Cellar Design 

When it comes to modern design in wine cellars, less is truly more. Minimalistic designs are an essential part to attain that modern look for your wine cellar. Modern wine cellar design focuses more on simple features rather than on bold and lavish details.  

Steer Clear from Clutter 

As much as we suggest our clients to be as imaginative and creative as they can be, for a modern design to be reached, certain things have to be omitted. This means that excessive use of certain features or furniture has to be left out to get that well-crafted modern look. Keep things minimal and all within bounds as to what makes a cellar modernly designed. 

Despite Anything, Don’t Let Bounds Keep You from Being Imaginative 

Despite the characteristics that make a cellar exhibit a modern look, having a modern design for your wine space does not mean you can’t incorporate other designs into your storage space. This is where the advantage of building a custom-made cellar comes in. Every wine cellar can be built considering the specific preference of the client. By incorporating the characteristics of a transitionally designed wine cellar, any wine cellar owner can accomplish a modern designed wine cellar.
