The Story Behind This TV Unit
A wall unit like this begins with a site drawing, not a catalogue. Wall width, ceiling height, socket positions, the size of your television and where daylight falls all change the design, so the bays are proportioned to your room before any timber is cut.
The teak is seasoned for months first, because a full-wall installation that moves will show gaps at every panel join. The bay frames and the console carcass are then built as furniture-grade joinery - not site carpentry - with the grain matched across adjacent panels so the figure runs continuously rather than breaking at each seam.
The carved work is done separately at the bench. The Ganesha medallion is carved in relief from the solid, the deity's features and the surrounding foliate roundel worked by the carvers who do figure work, and the scrollwork drawer front is cut as a continuous run. Both are then gold-leafed by hand and burnished. The marble is templated and cut to the finished aperture. Everything is dry-assembled in the workshop, photographed for your approval, then dismantled for transit and rebuilt on your wall.
