Interior design sees some odd fads and fashions (furry walls anyone?) but the inclusion of a wine cellar in any well-built home is an idea that has lasted centuries, and with good reason. However, now you need no longer wait until you inherit the stately pile to have a proper cellar. More and more companies are starting to specialise in bespoke cellar design, providing the nation with everything from poky holes in the floor and mini-cellars in the kitchen seating area to full, wrought-iron-gate fronted cellars (spiderwebs optional). So once you have your cellar and you've filled it with wine, what next? You can either use it as a storeroom or take the more sensible approach of installing a couple of armchairs or a dining table, a chandelier or two and start to truly appreciate your collection.
