Custom Pantry Barn Door

Creative Remimagining:

 

A New Life for Bali Screens

When Carl embarked on the project to transform cherished Bali screens into a custom barn door for a kitchen pantry, his enthusiasm was palpable. This venture resonated deeply with his values, tapping into creative innovation, providing a distinct and unparalleled design opportunity, and embracing the sustainable practice of upcycling.

The Design:

 

Crafting a Cohesive Vision

Materials laid out on the workbench, including Bali screens, flat handles, and timber for the barn door framework

The challenge lay not just in the repurposing but in ensuring that the end product would seamlessly blend into the kitchen environment as if meticulously planned from inception. The process involved deconstructing and ingeniously rearranging the screen, ensuring the mix-and-match pattern resulted in a pleasing aesthetic.

 Carl, together with Kim, the visionary homeowner, delved into a brainstorming synergy that culminated in a design that was not only functional but artistically striking.

The Process:

Planning of Bali Screen to Barn Door

The challenge was for this screen to look like a purpose-built unit, not just 4 panels “nailed together”.

We cut & shuffled panels around and mixed and matched top segments to run with bottom segments, thus avoiding a repeat pattern.

Kim was as excited as us to be involved in the creative process and once the design was finalised, we went to work.

Teamed up with a contemporary barndoor hardware, the end result was Incredible.  This unique door combines texture, design and function, complimenting the Kitchen and also reflecting Kim’s personality and style.

The Transformation:

A Seamless Intergration

The integration of modern barn door hardware with the traditional Bali screen design produced an outcome that was nothing short of remarkable. The finished barn door emerged as a testament to inventive design, merging tactile richness with sleek utility, and resonating with Kim’s distinctive taste.

Impactful Outcomes:

A Case Study of Success

The transformation of the Bali screens to barn door is not just a testament to the team’s ingenuity, but also a reflection of their commitment to environmental consciousness, as materials were salvaged and repurposed, diverting them from potential waste.

The Result:

Function Meets Aristry

The project’s success is threefold:

  • ·      Our client was overjoyed with a bespoke piece that encapsulates her personality.
  • ·      It stands as a beacon of sustainable design by repurposing with purpose.
  • ·      It delivered a pantry solution that is as ventilated as it is visually stunning.

The pantry barn door does more than function—it tells a story of transformation, and above all, it looks undeniably cool.

The crafted barn door not only revolutionises the space it occupies but also serves as inspiration for those seeking to blend the old with the new, to transform the mundane into the magnificent, and to turn a simple idea into a sustainable statement piece.
