Wine closets in the living room in Geel

Timeless architecture with a perfect wine climate

In this characterful villa in Geel, history, contemporary comfort and refined wine experience come together. Under the direction of interior designer Kissy Van den Plas, a unique, dated property was carefully renovated. Not by changing the soul of the house, but by making it visible again - with respect for the past and an eye for contemporary luxury.

An important part of the interior design concept is the integration of two EuroCave wine cabinets, subtly built into a custom-made enclosure in the living space. The wine cabinets are not only a functional element, but actively contribute to the atmosphere and appearance of the interior.

Two EuroCave Purewine cabinets, perfectly integrated

Chosen were two EuroCave Purewine cabinets, equipped with deluxe shelves and full glass doors. The cabinets are completely built into a custom-made wall, making them one with the architecture of the room. The transparent glass doors provide an elegant presentation of the wine collection, while the quiet lines and high-quality finishes blend seamlessly with the timeless character of the home. The wine cabinets give the wall an almost aristocratic look - as if they have always been a part of it - while behind this classic image is state-of-the-art storage technology.

Aesthetics and technology in balance

In this project it was essential that modern techniques be integrated discreetly. Just as underfloor heating, security and lighting were incorporated almost invisibly, the same applies to the wine storage. The EuroCave wine cabinets guarantee a stable climate with controlled temperature, humidity and protection against vibration and UV light - crucial factors for long-term wine storage. Thanks to the deluxe shelves, the bottles are optimally supported and clearly presented. This makes the wine cabinets suitable not only for storage, but also for serving and experiencing wine at a high level.

Added value for residents and architect

For the residents, the built-in EuroCave wine cabinets mean daily ease of use and the certainty that their wines mature under ideal conditions. For the architect, they are a powerful example of how functionality and design can reinforce each other.

This project illustrates how a wine cabinet can be more than an appliance: an architectural element that contributes to the identity of a home. By working closely with architect and residents, a solution was created that is completely in balance with the space, interior and lifestyle of the residents.

EuroCave proves in this home that perfect wine management and timeless aesthetics can go hand in hand.
