The habit of drinking, tasting and appreciating wine is increasingly present in the lives of Brazilians. This custom has led to important changes in homes. When planning spaces, during renovations or construction, everyone wants a place reserved for their wines and other beverages. specials. It was with this change in mind that the duo Ana Claudia Guerra and Phillippe Siarcos, from Guerra Siarcos Arquitetura, designed the
Cellar Room at
CASACOR Balneário Camboriú . Below you can learn a little about the project and check out tips from professionals for having a cool cellar in home!
In an area of 105
m2, they concentrated a wine cellar, lounge, support bar and a generous living room, a fully equipped and comfortable living room to house everything a wine lover could want. According to the duo, a wine cellar can fit into any space: "the size will depend on the client's collection, but it is important to anticipate future purchases, collection wines, those that will need to be stored for longer and those that are tasted more frequently. This will influence the size and sectorization of the storage of labels. Another important factor that will greatly influence is the location of the wine cellar; the preference is for a specific and isolated place to store it or leave it on display, integrated into the lounge, or living room, or dining room. Doing so part of the house's decoration", explains Ana.
The duo also recommends using natural and durable materials - such as stone and wood - which help preserve drinks. In the
Wine Cellar Room , they used natural wood for the ceiling and base, Black Nero marble covering the walls and Peroba wood flooring. Brushed mica. For the bottle holders, they created structures in golden iron, which house the drinks at a slight angle to keep the cork in contact with the wine. The closure was provided by a sliding door made of colorless glass to leave the collection on display. .
To preserve drinks, the cellar must be kept cold, around 12 to 18ºC, with fluctuations of up to 0.5ºC, so as not to compromise the wine's aging process. In warmer places, professionals warn of the need to use specific air conditioners. The relative humidity should be around 70% and the lighting should be done with low-power cold lamps.
Check out other tips from professionals for setting up a wine cellar below!
1) An unused corner can become a very cool and functional wine cellar. An area of 1.00 x 1.50 m can accommodate at least 60 labels. The ideal would be to integrate the wine cellar with the dining room, living room or gourmet area, making it a prominent element in the decoration of the space;
2) Prioritize noble and natural materials - such as stone and wood - in the coverings of the wine cellar surfaces. Sober tones always match the labels, warming and creating a welcoming atmosphere;
3) Bottles can be stored on individual supports with light structures set away from the wall, such as the gold-plated iron structures we designed for
CASACOR , giving a more modern look and moving away from the traditional wooden niches. In addition to highlighting each bottle, allows easy observation of the labels, optimizing space and good air circulation. A functional tip is to leave the bottles slightly tilted (13º angle), allowing the wine to be in contact with the cork, helping with conservation and keeping the lees in the bottom of the bottle;
4) The purpose of the wine cellar is to keep wines at the right temperature, fulfilling an almost mandatory function for those who enjoy tasting the drink. Wine cellars should be located in places where there is no direct sunlight, away from heat and humidity. The temperature it should be between 12 and 18ºC with the use of an air conditioner specific to the location, maintaining the exact temperature and humidity levels;
5) Lighting should be subtle;
LED lamps are ideal because they do not heat up the environment. Another great idea for those who have a lot of specimens is to opt for an electronic location system, in which each label is registered in the system and, when chosen, a LED light indicates location;
7) The most important thing is to know that the decoration of a house reflects the personality of its owner and for lovers of the drink, wine and its accessories, when included in the decoration, project the refined taste of the resident.
