Design, Build, and Install a Comprehensive Wall Unit with Desk and Storage Recommendations???

We are new to the neighborhood as well as this site.  It is such an amazing resource but as a newcomer, I find the directory to be a bit overwhelming.  We just moved to a loft in a former warehouse and are looking to hire someone to design and install a floor to ceiling wall unit that provides open and closed storage as well as some desk space.  We have a small budget for this project but value a skilled and trustworthy designer / woodworker.  Recommendations and referrals GREATLY appreciated!

I had such a unit built by the owner of the Cabinet Shoppe in Park Slope. He did an excellent job and was almost affordable. He hits the sweet spot between Gothic Cabinet Craft and fine woodworking. Listens, made excellent suggestions, measured twice or three times so he could cut once.
