Built-in cabinet in dining room has been a part of our home, traditional or modern, since time immemorial. What were niches on the wall or heavy cabinet in our ancestor’s home has now taken the form of stylish built-in storage cabinets. The unconventional designs of side-storage in modern dining rooms by the modern designers have deviated a bit from conventional designs of the past. However, the essence is same, does the same storage job, and solves the same purpose as side-board. Above all as piece of furniture, it adorns the wall to make the dining room sophisticated and stylish. Have a look!    

1. Built-in side-board storage complementing the length of dining space

Complementing the length of the long dining room, a long storage built-in unit covers the side of the space making enough space to store the precious crockery. The top of the cabinet is kept clear to serve to be the side-board and dining buffet of the dining room.

2. An extended side-board with storage in open dining room

It’s an integrated dining room and kitchen with a storage cabinet on the side which can also pass-on as an extended service platform for the kitchen. The cabinet is designed to also double up to be the small bar holding bottles and hanging wine glass.

3. Side-board storage merging with the décor of dining room

The space dominated by white with monotony broken by wooden dining table, wooden chairs, wooden false ceiling on top and then wooden door in middle of white storage cabinet on the side with white counter-top. It just merges with the décor giving the feeling that it was designed to be there.

6. Classic in white as the side storage cabinet of the dining room

It was built to fit perfectly in the room, to be a part of it and not be yet another piece of furniture in a dining room. In the classic combination of red and white with white textured board running from behind makes it a classic piece of side cabinet of dining room.

8. Soapstone counter-top over the wooden cabinet in dining room

A classic wooden cabinet with drawers and closet with soapstone counter-top to serve as dining buffet is perfect for dining room with kitchen on the side.

9. Traditional touch with the antique touch on the side in dining room

Antique look of the side cabinet with antique pieces adorning it fits perfectly with the ethnic décor of the room dominated by traditional dining table and open brick wall.
