Fine Woodworking
Mackall used a bed to divide this bedroom. The front of the headboard includes integral nightstands, bookshelves, and lighting. The headboard back has a mirror and a built-in dresser. Positioned as it is, the headboard also functions as a privacy screen, effectively creating a dressing area between the closets and the rest of the room.

By Louis Mackall 1
We live in the age of stuff. As an architect who specializes in kitchens and other interiors, I get to restore some semblance of order. But early in my architectural practice, I grew frustrated by how far removed architects typically are from the materials and processes of building. That's why I became a cabinetmaker. An uncut board is like a blank piece of paper, gently asking what I will make with it that would be more desirable than the board itself. As an architect, I find the voice of the...
Windows Need Special Attention
All the elements of a building are important, but windows are more so because they are our connection to nature. How the window is presented can determine whether people are drawn to it and, ultimately, how much they like the view. In this kitchen above , each window is framed by an arched, beaded proscenium. Contained in the frame are the lights and display shelves. All these things are detailed to give proper space for the window casing and sill. The cabinets on each side reinforce the frame....

A variation on the flush kick sometimes used for sink cabinets or Hoosier-type built-ins...
Fun And Fancy Family Room
Built-in cabinets give this family room space for storing toys, books, and the TV. The gas fireplace in this living room occupies a cantilevered bay so that it does not take valuable floor space. The 9-ft. ceilings, generous crown molding, and windows make the room seem bigger, photo david ericson
Working With Mdf
At a fundamental level, we live in houses because they provide shelter from the elements. A house is our cocoon, a place that protects us from Mother Nature when she visits with fierce storms, bitter cold, oppressive heat, or an assortment of other uncomfortable and sometimes scary weather. Early on, we relied mostly on limestone caves to provide that shelter. Somewhere along the way, though, as we moved out of caves and into rooms with gypsum walls, a house became more than a shelter from...
Whitechapel Hardware
www.whitechapel-ltd.com 800-468-5534 Victorian houses, built in the 19th century, are notable for their embellishments, inside and out. In this home, Hiller designed a butler's pantry in a small hallway that connects the kitchen to the dining room. Her cabinetry takes some of its inspiration from the client's collection of antiques, and mirrors the profuse detail found in the home's cornice moldings, baseboards, stairway, and door and window casings.
