The initial idea was a room divider between the hall and the sitting area. That idea gave way to a beautiful glass and steel wine cabinet. The hall was given a showpiece while the sitting room became a place to enjoy a good glass of wine by the fireplace. The wine cabinet has various gadgets to maintain the quality of the wine, including four pivot hinge systems from FritsJurgens.
In the original design, a room divider would be placed where the wine cabinet now stands. That way, the cozy sitting area would be separated from the hall. The door makers of Pjokke Dutch Design, who realized two double glass steel pivot doors in other places in the house, came up with the idea of the wine cabinet while enjoying a good glass of wine with the residents.
A sketch was scribbled on a notepad, and not much later, the wine cabinet was placed. The original design function was retained, namely separating the seating area from the hall, and a true showpiece came back in its place. The glass cabinet keeps all the fine wines and cigars in view without compromising on quality or functionality.
The cabinet is accessible from both sides thanks to four glass steel pivot doors, for example. All doors are equipped with System M+ pivot hinges by FritsJurgens, which means that the door movement is fully controlled, and the wines are protected. Find out what System M + makes possible.
The pivot doors in this design have been chosen based on functionality and aesthetics. The other pivot doors in the house are also made of glass and steel. This creates unity throughout the home. The wines are beautifully visible through the glass of the almost 2.5-meter-high and 1.2-meter-wide pivot doors.
