Sideboards provide versatile storage throughout your home, keeping everyday items organised whilst maintaining an uncluttered look. They offer flexible storage with drawers and cupboards that adapt to your needs, from glassware and place settings to paperwork and family games.
The generous surface provides display space for lamps and decorative pieces, whilst concealed storage keeps everyday items out of sight. Our sideboards are expertly crafted, available in natural oak or painted finishes, ensuring lasting quality that ages beautifully. The result is furniture that works quietly in the background – enhancing your everyday life.
Sideboards work beautifully in multiple rooms throughout your home. In living rooms, a sideboard provides storage for books and media whilst creating a focal point. Dining room sideboards offer practical storage for tableware and linens, keeping them close to where you eat.
In hallways, a sideboard brings functional storage for everyday items and maintains an uncluttered entrance. Kitchen sideboards suit open-plan spaces and provide additional storage for serveware and utensils. The key is choosing a size that suits your room's proportions – narrow sideboards work well in hallways, whilst wider pieces anchor living and dining spaces.
Sideboard size depends on your room's function and the furniture it sits alongside. In dining rooms, choose a sideboard shorter than your dining table to maintain proportion. In living rooms, a sideboard around two-thirds the length of your sofa creates balance. Consider what you'll store, as this determines the width and compartments you need.
Measure your room space, ensuring at least 60cm of clearance in front of the doors and drawers to allow them to open comfortably. The right sideboard sits proportionate to your room and existing furniture, anchoring the space without overwhelming it.
Choose your sideboard finish based on your interior style and the look you want to create. Painted sideboards suit classic and cottage interiors beautifully, bringing soft colour and refined character. We offer 47 paint colours for customisation on most sideboards, allowing you to coordinate with your existing scheme.
For those drawn to natural materials, oak sideboards like Holborn celebrate timber's distinctive grain and warmth. Oak introduces organic texture that works equally well in period homes and contemporary spaces, developing a rich patina over time. Painted finishes offer colour flexibility and gentle elegance, whilst oak brings natural character that ages gracefully.
