Matt Risinger showcases an incredibly detailed hidden doorway leading to a primary bedroom, seamlessly integrated into a wall of walnut slats. The slats, each milled and finished individually, create a visually continuous surface that disguises the door completely when closed. Thoughtful construction details include a shadow gap, perfectly aligned datum lines, and concealed return air vents. The design also features advanced Ketra lighting with customizable settings and hidden hardware for a sleek, fastener-free finish. Risinger emphasizes the importance of climate control during construction to maintain the integrity of the walnut. The craftsmanship and planning result in a stunning, flawless execution.
