From Dining Room Staple to Design Statement: The Evolving Role of Sideboards

Clear the clutter, tidy away the toys, display your collections or organise the chaos; the sideboard is one of the most versatile pieces of furniture you will come across, and most importantly, they're stylish too.

The Essence of Sophistication

Sideboards can instantly transform a room or space. They're the essence of sophistication, fitting perfectly into a modern or traditional setting and providing a generous surface space to make a design statement. What's more, they're perfect for adding storage to any room.

In the Living Room

Sideboards become a decorative feature in their own right. They can be used to display items, such as artwork, photos, ornaments or lamps. This enhances the stylish appeal of a room, allowing you to express your individual tastes to suit the surroundings and decor.

In the Dining Room

They're handy for serving food, but also make a convenient space for storing drinks, candles and place setting odds and ends.

In the Kitchen

With their ample interior space, they make the ideal piece of furniture for storing away cutlery, plates, glasses and tea towels. The kitchen is one of those rooms that never has enough storage space, so tidy away all of those 'overflow' items and use its surface to display some culinary keepsakes.

In the Hallway

Sideboards will make your space look as considered as the rest of your house. Add some photographs, some sweet smelling candles and a lamp, and now you have a very warm welcome every time you walk through your front door.

In the Bootroom

They're especially helpful for bringing some order to an otherwise chaotic area. They can tidy away a multitude of things, including shoes, cleaning items, dog leads, hats, scarves and seasonal essentials. Why not dedicate one cupboard for summer wear and one for winter wear? Then it's easy to find the right accessories as you're dashing out of the door.
