Let me get this straight: you want to build into the existing wall. As in, rip out drywall that's covering the studs so that the depth of your built-in will be greater than the 12" you originally envisioned?

Is this an interior wall? You're not going to cut out the supporting studs themselves, correct? Is there wiring or plumbing in there? Will the existing studs be wide enough for the look you desire?

I had a similar idea in our house, but haven't acted on it (translation: gotten a carpenter/cabinet maker to opine on it), yet.
