Sideboards are often the unsung hero of an interior design, providing a function as a showcase or storage space for other items.
But now, Houzz has collected some great ideas of how to breathe new life into your sideboards with a touch of creativity and love.
Here are our favourites:
Create a conversation piece by artfully arranging some much-loved objects on your sideboard, while keeping the space around it free of clutter.
This will draw people’s attention to the sideboard itself, encouraging conversation around the items on display.
The lounge pictured is a perfect example of this, using just a few choice pieces arranged spaciously, with symmetrical chairs and art naturally framing the sideboard.
Hanging a striking artwork above a sideboard will also draw attention to it, especially when the art and sideboard complement each other.
The bright pop art works in perfect harmony with the Midcentury sideboard, making it a true design feature.
Or why not make the sideboard itself the centre of attention? This fabulous, striped sideboard is bright and colourful, complementing the bold walls and standing out on its own merits.
