A room defined by its built-in.

Upper shelving follows three walls to turn the perimeter into one continuous storage system. Below, a broad wood surface creates an equally continuous work zone.

Lighting is integrated beneath the upper plane, emphasizing the thickness, grain, and long horizontal line of the work surface.
