Open shelving beneath tabletops provides additional storage for baskets, magazines, and entertainment accessories.
Hallway Solutions: Long narrow hallways benefit from streamlined consoles breaking up expanses while adding functionality.

Buffets & Sideboards: Dining Room Essentials
Traditional Buffets: Classic dining room buffets deliver substantial storage for dinnerware, serving pieces, table linens, and glassware behind enclosed cabinets and drawers. Wide surfaces accommodate serving dishes during dinner parties, coffee service stations, or decorative displays featuring florals and candles. Traditional styles feature turned legs, ornate hardware, and rich wood finishes celebrating timeless elegance.
Modern Sideboards: Contemporary sideboards embrace clean lines, geometric forms, and mixed materials. Expect sleek cabinet fronts, integrated handles, and elevated designs showcasing legs or plinths.

Design Styles for Every Aesthetic
Industrial Style: Celebrate raw materials through consoles and buffets combining reclaimed wood tops with blackened metal frames. Exposed rivets, pipe legs, and distressed finishes deliver urban warehouse aesthetics. Open shelving showcases storage baskets and decorative objects while maintaining industrial transparency. Perfect for loft apartments and contemporary spaces embracing authentic materials.
Rustic Charm: Natural wood grains, hand-hewn textures, and traditional joinery techniques define rustic consoles and buffets.

Wrought iron hardware, barn door slides, and distressed paint techniques enhance farmhouse appeal. Ideal for country homes and those valuing handcrafted authenticity.
Scandinavian Simplicity: Light wood tones, tapered legs, and functional minimalism characterize Nordic-inspired furniture. Clean lines eliminate unnecessary ornamentation while quality craftsmanship ensures lasting durability. Neutral palettes featuring oak, ash, and walnut integrate effortlessly into modern interiors.

Pine offers budget-friendly warmth with lighter colour profiles. Mango wood showcases unique grain variations and sustainable harvesting.
Engineered Wood: MDF and particleboard with quality veneers provide cost-effective alternatives maintaining aesthetic appeal. Modern manufacturing delivers smooth, consistent surfaces accepting various finishes. Choose pieces with durable edge banding preventing moisture damage and wear.
