Stickley Dining Room with Flush-Door Dish Cupboard (1909)

A plate from Craftsman Homes showing a dining room with a dish cupboard built into the wall so that the doors sit flush with the paneling.

This design hides storage in the wall: the cupboard doors are flush with the surrounding wainscot, so the room reads as a single paneled surface. Above, a shelf at door-head height runs around the room. The lower image shows a built-in window seat under a broad window. Flush-door storage is an idea that feels very contemporary today and works for pantries and media storage as well as dining rooms.
