I have had clients come to me and say that they’re doing a wine cellar, how should they do it. And it’s always the usual approach – having it be very utilitarian. This all changes with Samantha Nestor’s new book, Living With Wine, which really opens up the possibilities of what wine rooms can look like.
I’m very lucky to have one of my designs included with my restaurant, Alto, which has walls of wine rack from the back of the banquets to the ceiling. This design was inspired by Damien Hirst’s medicine cabinets and photographer Andrew French did a great job of capturing the space. It is so nice to see my work in the book’s large scale.
Highly recommended for all wine aficionados!

Look forward to seeing this book. Living in the wine country, we often get requests for various types of wine rooms, cabinets, and cellars. They can be both utilitarian and beautifully designed.
Thanks, Chris
