Secret Passages

This is a house loaded with secret passageways!!
*if you ever can go to Salem Massachusetts,
go to The House of The Seven Gables.
(no pictures allowed inside, that's why I couldn't post any)
A secret passage (or hidden passage or a secret tunnel) is a hidden route that is used to travel stealthily. Such passageways may be inside a building leading to a secret room, or be a way of entering (or exiting) somewhere without being seen. Hidden passages are a common feature of fiction, but have also served a variety of purposes throughout history. Hidden rooms have helped people evade capture or carry out illegal, religious, political, or smuggling activities.

I have always wanted a room with a wall just like this one.
That had a false bookcase / doorway.
Isn't this fabulous?
This is my favorite image in this post.
I would do this in a heart beat.
I was at a client's house, a
nd she had one going to a guest room
that was off the dining room.
It was fun.


From what I have found out...
these 'hidden doorways' are relatively easy installation kits.
I have them at the bottom of my post. 
There are all kinds of fun ideas you can incorporate into your very own 
FUN HOUSE!!

How do you feel 
about the hidden  passageways?
Would you want one in your home?

About Renée Finberg

I have been in this business since the age of 22.

I love what I do and cannot imagine my life without Design.

Design Challenges are great.

And because of those challenges

I have imported fine antique pieces from Paris,

Designed and Manufactured Furniture,

Created Fantastic Window Treatments,

And solved all kinds of spatial & architectural issues

With my unique style.

If I can't find it, I create it.

My rooms would make excellent movie sets.

I am a visual, tactile and audio sensitive individual.

Creating is what I live for, not math, not spelling, not science.

Just Great Design.

Just imagine how it would be if each of us,

If only for a few hours of everyday,We could be in a space that is our very own.A place that is exactly the way we want it to be

Surrounded by all the things we wanted to see,

The atmosphere we wanted feel, smell and the sound we wanted to listen to.
