Designed for MacRae by renowned Southern Architect Bobby McAlpine, the
McAlpine Home Collection features a number of delightful pieces ranging
from stunning case goods to elegant accent pieces – each reflecting
McAlpine’s inimitable style and reinterpretation of traditional English antique
design. Among them, the Museum Crate Console shown here in weathered
oak. Conceptually, McAlpine wanted a shipping crate that an antique might
travel in to morph into a piece of furniture itself. After all, sometimes
crates are as handsome as what they house — notice the hand grips at
floor level. www.macraedesigns.com.
