California Modern Custom Wine Cellar Built with Elegant Features
Modern Custom Wine Cellar by San Diego Master Builders
A popular homebuilder in California sought the help of Arctic Metalworks, one of our partners in wine room construction. The owners of the Pardee Homes wanted to add a beautiful feature to one of their model homes, so they decided to build a modern custom wine cellar in it. The Arctic team created a contemporary design to complement the existing décor of the residential unit.
Adding a California Modern Custom Wine Cellar to a Model Home
Pardee Homes has been a builder of residential units in California since 1921. They always want their clients to be happy with their purchased homes. The following awards given to them showed their expertise, reliability, and creativity in the construction industry:

- An advocate of the Year by the National Association of Home Builders Green Building Corporate
The owners decided to add a unique feature to the property, which is a modern custom wine cellar. They sought the help of Arctic Metalworks, a top-notch wine cellar builder in California and a full-service HVAC contractor. The team has extensive knowledge and experience in heating and refrigeration. As a member of Wine Cellar Designers Group, they perform the best practices in wine cellar construction and continue to develop innovative wine storage solutions.
How Arctic Metalworks Built a California Modern Custom Wine Cellar in a Model House
David Gype, the CEO and owner of Arctic Metalworks, was very grateful when the owners of Pardee Homes chose their team to work with this one-of-a-kind installation project. They were very pleased with the team’s quick response and the tasteful design of their California custom wine cellar.
The project was completed in two months using modern features that made the model home more enticing to potential buyers. The wine room is located between the dining area and the living area.
The Arctic team incorporated glass and metal elements into the wine room. Combining glass and metal is perfect for building modern wine rooms because they help create clean lines and timeless appeal.
Minimalist Wine Racks for a Modern Custom Wine Cellar in California
Glass-Enclosed Modern Custom Wine Cellar with Stainless Steel Wine Racks and a Reliable Wine Cooling System
As master builders, we know the impact of the racking styles and materials on the overall appeal and functionality of a wine storage structure.
Therefore, the overall design should be well thought out to ensure that all of the client’s needs are provided and prevent major modifications and a waste of time.
The owners wanted a minimalist design for the California modern custom wine cellar. Arctic Metalworks installed stainless wine racks on the sidewalls and back wall. The rods hold the bottles at a label-forward orientation, allowing for easy perusal of the wines.
Other metal wine racks you may choose for your modern wine cellar are from VintageView and Ultra Wine Racks & Cellars.
Seamless Glass Door and Walls
The California custom wine cellar is enclosed in glass panels on two sides. The glass door between two fixed glass walls faces the dining table, while the wall on the other side faces the living area. Arctic Metalworks utilized single-paned glass panels, which are 9 feet in height. The glass door allows the wine bottles to be viewed from both the dining and living area.
Wine Room Insulation: a Crucial Part of the Custom Wine Cellar Construction Process
Before installing the wine racks, glass enclosure, and wine cooling system, Arctic Metalworks insulated the walls, ceiling, and door. Considering the amount of glass used installed in the wine cellar, they had to increase the insulation in the room.
Correct insulation will help create the ideal wine storage environment needed for wine aging. It will prevent temperature fluctuations and varying humidity levels. Keep in mind that an unstable environment will spoil the wines, affect the structural integrity of your wine cellar, and damage the wine labels.
Insulating the wine room will also help the wine refrigeration unit to offer superior cooling efficiency without being forced to work hard. The Arctic team equipped the door with sealing components to prevent air leakage to and from the wine cellar.
High-Grade Wine Cooling System
Installing the correct room insulation and the right size wine cooling system will prevent costly wine storage problems in the future. Hiring an HVAC expert will ensure that everything is in place regardless of the challenges on the way. In this modern custom wine cellar in California, Arctic Metalworks had to install the equipment so that no equipment could be seen.
They requested the owners to create a platform in the attic intended for the forced air unit that would supply the cold air at a high-static pressure. A condensate line for the drain was provided. They ducted the wine cooler split system and created vents in the ceiling to supply the cold air inside the wine room.
