What a sight for sore eyes. This could be the ultimate building block of your dining or living room. With such austerity in a storage piece, you could go all kinds of crazy with rugs, lighting, artwork, you name it.

Oak Ligna by Ethnicraft is a fantastic new introduction to their assortment. Stainless steel and solid oak are combined for a modern and timeless look. Made of solid wood using classical furniture making techniques, these pieces are naturally durable and stain resistant.

Hmm, sawhorse legs on a storage console…good or bad? I’m leaning towards good, but I’d like it a little more if there were other leg options to choose from.

Our pared down take on the classic sawhorse is used as a leg for this cabinet. Shown in white oak with ebonized doors in a surprising, chiseled finish. Touch latch door closure.

Interchangeable legs and a drop-dead blue color qualifies this cabinet for my wish list…unfortunately, the price makes it go into the ‘if-I-win-the-lottery’ subcategory.

Interchangeable legs support this Showtime Cabinet as it expresses dichotomy and symbiosis. Things internal and external play out in organic forms and established classicism, resting against each other, elegantly coexisting. Noticeable inspiration comes from classical MGM musicals in terms of the dramatic and personified shapes for which the Spanish designer seems to have a penchant.

This retail site is actually pretty neat; you’re able to pick a frame and then customize it to your specifications. You can pick what size, legs, fabric, and filling you want, which means you decide how much you spend. Prices listed below are the starting price, so just for example, if you pick the Mota 84″ (shown in cream above), once you add Polyurethane Foam for the filling (+$246), Polyester Fiber for back pillows (+$124), fabric (at least +$180), and legs (as shown +$96), the price comes to about $1541, so keep that in mind. They also have some decent rugs and occasional tables.

Viesso offers an easy way to customize our products on this interactive website: select the model, the layout, and the appropriate size for your space. Next, choose from a large variety of Green options for fabric, finishes, legs, filling and more to create your own unique piece. You can price and purchase online, and we’ll build your order in Los Angeles to ship nationwide.

Man, if the economy didn’t suck right now, some of us could probably afford this. The plaid cork graphic on this sideboard is such a great detail.

Iannone Design’s new sideboard uses a variety of cork textures and colors to create a warm toned plaid graphic. The cabinet has touch release doors and a hand applied non toxic oil finish.

The maple frame with black doors makes for a nice blocky/modern look, and thankfully, the price is under the $1 G mark.

This would be perfect for under a wall-mounted flat screen TV. The Arctic sideboard is by Rolf Fransson and has cable management within its back panel.

Now here’s a nice modern take on sophistication.

“Eschew”? For real?

“Meld spare line with century-old reclaimed pine planking, fine craftsmanship with more than multiple use function and, voila, the Richardson Reeves makes its Sundance debut. Eschew as we do the bounds of strict traditional or equally restrictive haute contemporary design with a furnishings statement born of both…richly patinaed naturally and fitted with four incredibly ample drawers for use in both dining (wonderbar sideboard) or the bed chamber (exceptional chest). Made in the USA of imported parts.”

71-1/2″W x 22″D x 26-3/4″H.

The undulating facade of this sideboard would add a textured element (of sorts) to a dining or living room.

“This sculptural sideboard cabinet – winner of the prestigious 100% Design Award and runner up in the Elle Decor award – is a genuine masterpiece by renowned designer Russell Pinch.”

Materials: Solid Oak White painted cabinet with two drawers in the middle, a door on each side, and Stainless Steel square legs.

W59 x D20 x H24.75 in.

“Cubits can transform easily from a shelf to a cabinet with the addition of the optional doors and backs. The backs keep your stored items from falling behind the unit and enables Cubits to be used as a room divider. Made of the same high-quality polypropylene as the shelves, the backs are sold separately in sets of two and can be added and removed at will.”

If you’re the sort who prefers to match pieces (as in, your dining table matches the credenza) now you have an extra option of collections to choose from. The
Cross Table (above right, $2,750.00) now has a friend.

“Matthew Hilton designed the Cross Credenza (2007) as a material and visual complement to his Cross Extension Table. But its straightforward aesthetic and solid craftsmanship make it an apt choice not only for the dining room, but also for media storage or the front hall. The Credenza has three drawers on the left, the topmost being slimmer than the others, sized for cutlery or utensils. Two doors on the right open onto two shelves which are height-adjustable to suit individual needs. With a solid oak frame, the Cross Credenza has an oak veneer that coordinates with the Cross tables and Profile Chair, as well as the Cross Coffee Table. Blum® soft-closure hardware rounds out the quality craftsmanship.”

Holy, this is a good price (if you don’t mind assembly required furniture).

Cord outlet in the back. Keeps all cords in one place.

Pairing a little detail with an otherwise simple modern shape seems to suit this sideboard quite well. There’s just enough scroll work to keep it interesting, yet it wouldn’t clash with or distract from other pieces in the room.

“Straddling the line between minimal and maximal, the Scatola Armonica Sideboard teams a spare, modern shape and materials with richly ornamental, scrolling details.”
