Custom Modern Wine Room with Spectacular RGB Lights at The Peaks, Las Vegas

Typical wine rooms commonly reflect an atmosphere that promotes calmness and relaxation. Even within the spectrum of custom modern wine rooms, most design elements are professionally curated to stimulate a still and restful environment. 

Not totally for this modern wine cellar, though. 

Cachet Wine Cellars team recently finished a project at The Peaks, Las Vegas, featuring a modern wine cellar with glass panels, glossy shelves, and an RGB lighting feature that allows you to switch from one color to another remotely!

Modern Glass French Doors

 
Clean, minimalist lines, glass, and metal characterize modern wine cellars. It was easy to decide that his home’s wine cellar must have glass doors, so dual-paned glass panels were brought in to enclose the front part of the cellar. 

Dual-paned glass is engineered glass that involves two single glass panels sandwiching a “spacer,” most often argon gas. Dual-paned glass has better insulation capabilities than single-paned glass, but the latter can also be enough in some cases.

One pair of French doors welcomes guests into the cellar. 

Compared to double doors, French doors open outward and require people to pull the handles if they are entering the wine room. 

Our team also installed magnets between the doors so the doors can easily lock into place when closed.

Advanced Insulation and Cooling Combo 

To cool this custom modern wine room, we chose the HS 8600 cooling system from US Cellar Systems. The HS 8600 is a high static, fully ducted cooling system that does not produce any significant noise and vibrations inside the cellar. This is because the set is designed in a way where the “noisy” components are installed outside the cellar. 

Since its motor is thermally protected, the HS 8600 can perform well even in high-temperature areas like Nevada while maintaining static pressure. 

We ran the copper tubing through the walls and into the condenser behind the wine cellar before working on the wine room’s insulation. 

Speaking of insulation, since this is new construction, the team was able to work on the walls from scratch. We added 3-4 inches of closed-cell spray foam on the backwood, then installed plywood, greenboard, and mudsand, added some texture, and then finally painted. We chose an almost brick red color for the paint to complement the walls outside the cellar.
