Unusual, but great audio/stereo furniture (and built-ins)?


Most of us with higher end stereo/audio components need something to set them on/put them in. In the early days there was a company called Barzilay and since many. I had a modern furniture store for years and sold many audio storage units, mainly from Denmark/Scandinavia.

I have been out of the business for several years. What have you experienced to be great looking and working furniture to hold your components? I know that many have built-ins that are beyond many free standing units. My best built in was in a classic 1920s house in a great neighborhood of Madison, Wi. A contractor friend of mine had an older/retired craftsman working for him that did a series of built-ins in the living/media, dining, bedroom and some very functional/great looking corner units in the open stair/hallways. Those and the fireplace surround this craftsman did were so great, they looked like they had always been there.

In helping friends and customers with furnishings and audio...I found many good marriages of design/style and function. Many historic homes that I helped re-model, the goal was for those modifications to appear like they were there from the start. Miss doing that for people.

n80, very nice.  Is the bird on the top left a Sandpiper?  If so, that was the name of a decent Steve McQueen film. 

Take care
It is a sandpiper. Carved by my uncle. Never heard of that McQueen movie but I may just look it up.
