Wine Cellar Art and Wine Cellar Design

Wine Cellar Design – Decorative Wine Cellar Art Pieces to Enhance a Wine Cellar Space

A wine cellar is purpose-built to store wines and preserve their quality for a prolonged period of time.  Wine storage rooms are engineered to protect wines against severe fluctuations and bright light by providing a stable temperature, the right amount of humidity, and relative darkness.

The wine cellar design and construction process not only focuses on the technical aspects of proper storage, but also on the aesthetic appearance of the space.

Contemporary wine cellars are pictures of tasteful décor and elegant flair.  They provide a comfortable environment for storing wine collectibles and at the same time function as a cozy venue for entertaining guests.  There are numerous wine cellar art elements that can be integrated into a wine cellar design, including hand painted murals, stained glass, wine barrel flooring, lighting, and wine barrel carvings.

Hand painted murals are art pieces directly applied to or painted on walls and ceilings.  These artistic creations not only provide a dramatic impact, but also add character to a wine cellar space.  These beautiful masterpieces can depict an array of wine related themes, such as vineyard scenes, wine motifs, or wine country landscapes.  Artists can also custom design mural works based on image ideas provided by clients.

Stained glass is colored glass that is cut into different shapes and patterns, which are then arranged into a mosaic in order to form an image or geometric design.  This material can be incorporated into many components of a wine cellar space, such as entryway doors, glass rack openings, or archways.  Stained glass can also cast a beautiful reflection on storage room walls.  Adding this elegant wine cellar art can enhance the ambiance of a wine room.

Reclaimed wine barrel flooring (www.winecellarspec.com/floors-and-tabletops/) can provide a one of a kind appearance to a wine cellar.  There are three variations of wine barrel flooring: cooperage, wine infusion, and stave.  Cooperage comes from the top and bottom part of the barrel, and features winery stamps and markings.  Wine infusion refers to the inner part of the barrel that is naturally stained by the wine.  The stave is the outside part of the barrel and bears distinctive markings from removed metal hoops.

Each variation has its own unique characteristics and features.  When combined, reclaimed barrel flooring creates a stunning appearance that brings out a sense of history.  Retired oak wine barrels can also be used as matching tabletops or serving tables to create a more visually appealing contemporary wine cellars.

Lighting systems are another important element of wine cellar design.  For wine cellar specialists, it is best to use light-emitting diode (LED) lighting exclusively in a wine cellar because it produces little to no heat.  These light sources provide the right amount of illumination to view wine labels, accentuate certain spots, and set the right mood inside a wine storage room.  Lighting fixtures come in a range of styles, from chandeliers to wall sconces, recessed can lights to track lighting.

Wine collectors can add personality to their contemporary wine cellars by integrating wine cellar art pieces, such as wine barrel carvings.  This hand carved art is made from vintage wine barrels and depicts anything from the wine lifestyle to a family crest.  Wine barrel carvings are tasteful works of art that can provide a lot of aesthetic appeal to a wine cellar space.

I’d like to show you how we took a plain ordinary room and turned it into a beautiful contemporary wine cellar.  This is in Atlanta, Georgia where we were asked to take a room that used to be a smoking room.  The former home owners have this room.  It have tiled floors and white molding around the edges and what you’re looking at is of course the before picture.  This is wall paper on the walls.

The second photo that I’m going to show you are the ceiling with lots of vents in it where they were taking the smoke out of the room and lighting down the center.  We took this room and took the walls and the ceiling out and we added a cooling unit in a mechanical room that was just down the way.

It was a CellarPro VSI 4200 and we ducted the air in and out through the ceiling.  We added closed polyurethane foam in the walls and the ceiling, added green board to the ceiling and walls and added on VintageView metal wine racks.

I’d like to show you how we designed this contemporary wine cellar Atlanta GA.  We used VintageView metal wine racks on the walls, and we have single deep on the right with the little extra space down below for the door.  We have double deep on the left, we could’ve used three deep but we ended up with 906 bottles anyway.  So this is how many the customer wanted.  On the end we have presentation racks in the center with three deep on each side.

Moving down you can see the wall space we took it almost floor to ceiling.  We left some room at the end because the end piece goes wall to wall on the bottom, presentation racks in the center and the three deep on the side.

Now, I’m going to show you the final photograph of the room completed and I think it turned out beautifully.  The walls were painted in cream or deep cream kind of a tan color with the burgundy ceiling.

We have LED track lighting in the ceiling, you can see the vent here the air the supply and return.  You can’t see the one that is down here but there is another in the ceiling down here.  This is our case storage down below.  We kept the flooring adding a darker trim around the base boards.

I think this turned out beautifully, our partners in the Atlanta area who are certified construction in Georgia did the actual construction for us. The room was designed and products provided by Wine Cellar SPecialists. I hope you have enjoyed this and you can see how a room can be done with VintageView metal wine racks for a very contemporary wine cellar Atlanta GA look.
