OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE CONTEMPORARY: STEEL AND GLASS WINE ROOMS ARE ON-TREND

Uncategorized

Spiral Cellars, the UK market-leader in cellaring solutions, is seeing an uplift in demand for wine rooms with a contemporary look and feel as more people want bespoke wine storage which is in keeping the design of their homes. Recent commissions include wine rooms featuring stainless steel and glass, dramatic glass wall displays and even requests for hi-tech options such as locks with finger-print technology and glass which turns opaque at the flick of a switch.

Commenting on the trend, Lucy Hargreaves, Managing Director and owner of Spiral Cellars, said: “We are seeing a growing interest in wine rooms which not only provide the best conditions for wine but are also a unique design feature in the home. We see this as a trend that is set to continue as wine cellaring becomes a key feature of up-market priorities.”

This is echoed by Sam Sproston, Partner and Office Head, at Knight Frank, Wandsworth, who said: “Wine cellars are becoming an increasingly important feature in homes at the higher end of the property market. Fine wine collections are seen as both a good investment but also a source of pride, meaning that cellars need to provide a space where it can be both stored and admired. As a result, we are currently seeing wine rooms of all shapes and sizes being designed for high end homes, particularly in recent refurbishments and new developments.”

Where possible, Spiral Cellars employs a policy of sourcing from British manufacturers and works closely with UK suppliers to source materials, fixtures and fittings to ensure the highest quality end product.
