A wine cellar is a room for patience. We build cellars and wine rooms in which temperature, humidity and light are perfect, and in which the bottles are displayed as what they are: a collection.
Storage begins with climate: 12 to 14 degrees, 60 to 70 percent humidity, no vibration, no light. We design the insulation, the vapour barrier and the climate installation as one system, whether it concerns an existing cellar under a townhouse or a glass wine room next to the dining room.
Then comes the presentation. Racks in solid oak, black steel or brass, matched to the format of your bottles and cases. A tasting table in natural stone, a sink for decanting and lighting that lets you read the labels without warming the wine. A glass wall with climate separation makes the collection part of the interior.

Renovating a wine cellar in Rotterdam
In Rotterdam we mainly work in urban villas, villas, penthouses and lofts, in neighbourhoods such as Kralingen-Oost, Hillegersberg, Scheepvaartkwartier, Blijdorp and Kop van Zuid. Each typology places its own demands on a wine cellar: height, daylight, pipework, structure and sometimes heritage rules. Our architects know the local frameworks and design within them without compromising the end result.
The atelier is located in The Hague, 30 min from Rotterdam. A project director is on site daily, and after handover that same person remains your permanent contact for maintenance, warranty and new wishes.

01
High-rise and owners' associations
Penthouses and apartments require coordination with the owners' association, building management and lift logistics, and careful sound insulation for floors and installations. We arrange it all.
02
Living on the water
Jetties, terraces and sightlines to the water are designed as part of the whole, with materials that withstand moisture.
03
Design and architectural tradition
In a city with a strong design tradition, clients expect architecture that participates. We design with respect for the context and with our own recognisable signature.
04
Commercial property
For offices, showrooms and practices we build in phases and outside office hours where necessary, and coordinate with landlord, owners' association and fire safety.
Hotel inspiration
The wine rooms of starred restaurants display the collection as art. We bring that presentation to your cellar, with the climate of a professional cave.
Materials
- Solid oak and walnut for racks
- Black steel and brass
- Natural stone for floor and tasting table
- Climate glass with insulating profiles
- Lime plaster and brick

Frequently asked questions
Luxury wine cellar renovation in Rotterdam
Allow an indicative € 35,000 to € 120,000 for a wine room with climate control and bespoke racks; excavating or deepening a cellar comes on top. The exact price follows from the design and the bill of materials; you receive a fixed contract sum before the start.
Yes. Aftercare is part of every commission in Rotterdam: a visit after 14 days, checks after 3, 6 and 12 months and an annual inspection with maintenance plan thereafter.
Yes, almost always. We examine moisture, height and ventilation and design the insulation and climate installation to measure.
A wine cellar is below ground and benefits from natural coolness; a wine room is a climate-controlled space on a floor, often with glass. We build both.
