Sideboards From the Living Room to the Dining Room
A sideboard is one of the most understated furniture pieces that offers style, storage, and practicality. It can complete any room, such as the dining room, living room, baby room, office, and even the hallway, without compromising on design. It features drawers, shelves, and compartments with doors that can also accommodate many things, like cutlery, bottles, a basket of toys, clothing, and board games.
On the surface, you can use it as a mini garden to display your plants, or place a fruit basket, ornaments, plates, accessories, as well as small appliances like lamps.
Traditional VS. Contemporary Style Sideboards
Although it’s considered vintage, a sideboard is still a piece of stylish and attractive furniture that will compliment other fixtures in your home, may it be the door, cupboards, sofas, shelves, blinds, cushions, and rugs. But before you decide to shop for that perfect sideboard, it’s best to take into account the factors below to ensure that it will suit your style.
Measuring the Space for Your Sideboard
You wouldn’t want a sideboard that will take too much space or one that’s too small that it seems awkward when you rest it against the wall. It’s a good thing that we have a range of sideboards to cater to all spaces.
If you’re looking for a small sideboard that can fit into a tight corner, opt for one with a low height. For example, a narrow sideboard with 2 doors may look good in the hallway for extra storage. It might even surprise you that a spot or certain side of the wall can actually accommodate one of our sideboards perfectly.
Larger cabinets can create a pleasing interior design when decorated with a mix of elements like a few plants from your garden or a glass bowl to serve as a basket for your accessories. They typically have more doors, shelves, and drawers for storage.
Also, consider how you’re going to use it. Is it for decorative purposes or do you want more shelving?
In case you’re still having concerns about the size of the sideboard you should get while online shopping, why not consider our bespoke services? This way, you can create your new cabinet based on your measurements.

A Modern Sideboard or Go Traditional?
Keep in mind that you should aim for consistency and coherence between your room and your new furniture. If you want a modern sideboard, then you’ll love our stock of sideboards with glass, marble, and high-gloss finishes! You can opt for wide-surfaced units to give you more area to decorate.
Do you prefer wooden fixtures? Then a sideboard made of solid wood is for you. Traditional ones can be made from oak, walnut, mango, and pine. It’s sure to give a classy and rustic, yet cosy atmosphere to your home. Just like the Chiaro with a natural oak top.
Environmentally-conscious customers will love our stock of reclaimed wood sideboards made from recyclable wood. Different decor pieces will deliver an industrial or rustic appearance.
We also consider colour schemes an important factor for our customers. At Sena Home Furniture, we also have options for you to choose a painted sideboard in white, grey, or black. Then there are gold and brass accents, as well as geometric and mirrored designs.
How To Make a Sideboard Match Your Existing Décor
Whether you were able to decide if you’re going to put your sideboard in the living room or not, the only rule is, don’t limit yourself. It may have been initially crafted to be placed in the dining area to store tableware, cutlery, glassware, and crockery, but the current designs made it more functional.
Kitchens are one of the places that often need more storage. Match it with other dining fixtures and display some of your fancy chinaware on it. It will create a cohesive and stylish look with ease, without needing to refit the entire kitchen.
In the living room, you can use a sideboard as a TV stand and its drawers to hide away the remote controls. If you decide to place it in the baby or children’s bedroom, an oak unit will surely give a nice touch, then you can add a wicker basket or a box in the spacious compartments to store toys and clothing.
If you don’t want to use a basket, shop for a sideboard with shelves and a door or two will give it a sleeker look as everything is out of sight.
The bottom line is, there are endless options!
You can even use a bookcase as a sideboard, too. Just make sure that it has about the same height as a dining table. All that’s left to do is decorate it the same way as you would with an actual sideboard to make it eye-catching.
