Wall decoration

To begin with wall decoration, it is to keep in mind that cellar room walls ought to be completely dry to protect it from all types of moisture or wetness.

Ceiling touch

Flooring

A gap should be maintained in between floor with the wall for later expansion of wooden floor materials. However, it needs to be sealed by molding after installation of the wine racks. You can also opt for designed ceramic floor which also look great in the cellar room.

Lighting

Use a combination of recessed cans and track lights in the ceiling part. Whereas recessed cans are low profile pointed light which can be used for focusing specific areas, track lighting are movable type that provides a better lighting  than recessed cans. However, the track lights should not be nearer to the wine racks. Display lighting can offer a special touch for wine cellar and these should necessarily be low-voltage systems. Accent lighting looks superb over the arched ceiling. Remember, few things about lighting. No harsh light can be used that produce ultra-violet as it is worse for valued wine collection. It is recommended to use dimmers by which level of lighting can be changed. For spreading or dispersing light over the cellar room as well floor, scones can be used along with chandelier to have a royal expression.
