TIMBERRY — Custom Millwork • Interiors
Custom Built-ins / Calgary

Architectural millwork made for the space it belongs in.

Architectural millwork integrates with the building rather than standing independently as furniture. Wall-to-wall cabinetry, fitted shelving and entertainment walls are developed around the room’s proportions, features and practical constraints.

01 / Custom Built-ins

Respond to the architecture

Ceiling height, recesses, wall irregularities, door openings and existing features influence the composition. Electrical devices, lighting and material transitions need to be located within the design rather than treated as afterthoughts.

  • Floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall installations
  • Home office and entertainment cabinetry
  • Recesses, niches and architectural openings
  • Existing services and material transitions
02 / Custom Built-ins

Resolve the visible details

Panel proportions, reveals, shadow gaps and grain direction establish the rhythm of the room. Shelf thickness, symmetry and alignment are balanced with support and construction requirements.

  • Consistent reveals and visual alignment
  • Grain direction across related components
  • Curved or radiused elements where feasible
  • Concealed fixings where appropriate
03 / Custom Built-ins

Choose an appropriate material

White oak, walnut, maple, cherry, painted MDF and selected decorative panels offer different expressions. Solid wood and veneer serve different roles; neither is automatically superior for every component.

  • Natural wood and selected veneers
  • Painted and decorative panel surfaces
  • Material stability and finishing
  • Project-specific availability and budget
04 / Custom Built-ins

Bring the design to site

Dimensions, fixing conditions and access affect how large components are made and installed. Drawings and specifications establish the intended result before manufacture, with delivery and site requirements coordinated within the scope.

  • Measured room geometry
  • Manufacturing and transport considerations
  • Installation tolerances and supports
  • Approved finishes and functional details
