HOME “Don’t buy anything new. Just scale down.” RHODA WEINSTEIN STORAGE SOLUTIONS An advocate of built-in features that maximize space and storage, Weinstein designed a custom wall unit for her dining area that looks like library shelves. In actuality, it is a wall of black painted wooden cabinets with antique leather book bindings from England that are attached to the door fronts to hide a storage area for dishes and glasses. A countertop used when entertaining sits below the books. A full wall of built-in drawers and cabinets in her bedroom hide a television and provide storage for clothes. Wooden plaques painted and glued on flat cabinet doors give a designer look beneath the soffit with high hat lighting. Additional shelving installed behind her clothing in a closet in the hall hide her cake decorating supplies. ■ FALL 2015 WAYNE MAGAZINE 33
