Hi! I’m Amanda! Welcome to my new blog! Even if you’ve already read my bio on my about me page, I thought I’d share a little more about myself here. After working in the design industry (both residential and commercial for over 15 years), I just recently started my own virtual design business offering residential design services exclusively online utilizing amazing photorealistic 3D renderings. It’s been so rewarding to help clients all over the country transform their homes into spaces they love to live in!
When I’m not designing, I’m usually reading or writing. I’m a huge fantasy nerd and could talk your ear off about Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings all day. I also live by the beach in sunny southern California and I love getting outside whenever I can.
I thought I’d start the blog off with a bang and feature the fabulously glam dining room I just designed for a contest through edesign tribe featuring a very luxurious in-home bar. I’ve always loved the idea of having a bar in the dining room, or at least somewhere near the dining room for those occasions when your home is overflowing with guests and making multiple trips to the kitchen for extra glasses or bottles of wine would be a headache.
Integrated Wine Dispenser
Of course, your bar doesn’t have to be built-in. A freestanding buffet or cabinet is the perfect place for a bar setup. This dining room, however, goes the extra mile and features two integrated wine dispensers from Plum Wine, each holding two wine bottles, preserving your wine for up to 90 days.
The Plum Wine Dispenser comes in both the integrated and freestanding units, both of which utilize a camera to read the code on your wine bottle to provide you with detailed product information including the vintage, winery, and more, all displayed on the unit’s touchscreen. Either model is perfect for any room in your home where you like to enjoy your wine.
Hardwood Flooring
This dining room also features wood flooring from Revel Woods, a sustainable collection of beautiful hardwood flooring sourced and milled in North America. Handmade, curated, and responsibly sourced, Revel Woods ensures that every step of their process adheres to their rigorous standards for sustainability, and comes in a wide range of colors and styles for every room of your home.
You can view and purchase their collections all online. Just enter information about your home and Revel Woods will provide you with the right product for your home, lifestyle, and environment.
