  • Gaming & Karaoke with a Full-Height TV Cabinet

    Gaming & Karaoke with a Full-Height TV Cabinet

    For this recently bought Glenfield house, the owner conducted a thorough home renovation. Having finished a beautiful modern kitchen for this family, our work also extended to a custom TV cabinet and a bathroom vanity, which combined to firmly cement this home as a full modern package.

    A Modern Replacement

    Coming with the original home, the owner’s living space inherited an old fireplace. As they wished to opt for indoor heating, this fixture would have served as nothing more than a decorative relic. In place of it, BoxMakers were called upon to deliver a floor to ceiling TV cabinet, with a broad enough space to accommodate TVs up to 75”.

    Our precision cut cabinetry used a 16mm MDF substrate with a finish that came in Bleached Maple Woodgrain by Prime Panels. This mirrored the look of the brand-new kitchen while also fitting perfectly with the hardwood floor. As far as storage is concerned, the cabinet offers four large shelves with backlit LEDs, dual vertical cabinets with ample shelving, and bottom drawers featuring Häfele’s runner systems.

    Built With Purpose

    We carefully cut the wall-facing corner t to accommodate the room’s crown moulding, ensuring a seamless fit and perfectly integrating it with the living room. We also integrated numerous power points, tailoring towards the family’s uses. In addition to enjoying shows on a very large TV, the household are also big fans of gaming and karaoke. These power outlets allow for convenient powering of consoles and accessories while being excellent at hiding cables.

    A New Vanity

    Downstairs saw a significant structural makeover, and BoxMakers’ role was to deliver a new laundry vanity to provide additional storage and a convenient basin. It features the same Calacatta Bianco countertop as the kitchen, partnered with a new cabinet finish of white melamine, yet complementing it just as well. We chose Mardeco’s Arezzo series for the handles, a rounded rectangular bar handle in black. This quaint little corner vanity adds cohesion and function to the new ground floor.

  • An Immersive Full-Wall Entertainment Unit

    An Immersive Full-Wall Entertainment Unit

    While broadcast television may be on its way out, your TV, and where you watch it, is more relevant than ever. With an abundance of shows to watch and games to play, nothing beats entertainment on the biggest screen in the home. The owners of this new residence are keenly aware of this fact and sought to make their multimedia room the best it could be, calling upon BoxMakers for a full-wall entertainment unit.

    A Multimedia Powerhouse

    As connoisseurs of home entertainment, the family wanted a space to host the trifecta of gaming, listening, and viewing. Our acutely eyed designers knew exactly what the job called for, such as tailor-made cubbies for consoles, turntables, and display materials. The power points, for example, were keenly positioned to make plug and play as easy as it sounds.

    Dripping With Atmosphere

    From the outset, we aimed to deliver the client’s goal of an atmospheric and immersive space. This involved a rich finish of Dark Oak Puregrain from Melteca. The melamine-on-MDF combo ensured high weight capacity while also facilitating our choice of finish.

    Performance & Utility

    On the left, the unit sports an accommodating assortment of adjustable shelving, while the right half features a TV display with purpose-built shelves for consoles and accessories. This side is notable for having slatted acoustic panelling, shared with the backing pattern. We partnered with Profile Panels to deliver this sleek and performant solution. Its Natural Ebony colour is a perfect collaborator for the melamine panels, bringing modernity and dynamism to the aesthetic. Its soundproofing ability boosts the room’s aural performance while also dampening its disruption to other spaces.

    Quality Hardware

    The bottom cabinets feature a symmetrical selection of four drawers. Featuring Häfele’s quality hardware, they are a breeze to open and close. Underneath, the toe kick features warm LED lighting from Domus Line, supplied by Fit NZ. It also appears in, and beneath the TV housing, matching ceiling light’s glow on the panel face. This gives a rich, theatrical atmosphere to the room. With room to accommodate even larger TVs, this entertainment unit allows for a veritable home theatre.

    Perfectly working with the room’s blackout curtains and soft carpet, our entertainment unit combines for a superbly immersive experience. The closable panels also make it incredibly friendly for the resident feline, being able to close away shelves from the mischief of curious cats.

    As a statement piece with incredible presence and function, this unit truly makes for an unparalleled viewing experience.
