A chest of drawers and a sideboard are both storage pieces often used in the dining room or bedroom, but they have a few differences:

A chest of drawers is mainly used for storing clothes in a bedroom. It is usually fitted with drawers and may have a mirror attached above it
A sideboard is generally used to store dishes, cutlery, and other tableware in a dining room. It can also serve as a surface for presenting dishes during meals or gatherings.

A sideboard in a living room : Add a modern touch to your living room with our designer solid wood sideboard, combining elegance and functionality. A sideboard can be used as a storage unit for dishes, glasses or table linens in the dining area adjacent to the living room. It can also be used to store board games, books or decorative objects.
A chest of drawers in a bedroom : Choose Scandinavian style with our light wood and white chest of drawers, perfect for bringing a warm feel to your bedroom. Place it along a wall for practical storage for your clothes and accessories.
A sideboard in a kitchen : Choosing a sideboard as the central storage piece for your dining room is a smart decision. For those looking to optimize limited kitchen space, our black and wood sideboard is an ideal choice. Its versatility lets you add extra storage space for your kitchen utensils, appliances and pantry items, helping you organize your kitchen efficiently. Its sophisticated design brings a touch of elegance to your interior.
A sideboard in a dining room : A low sideboard in solid wood and white steel can create a natural, authentic atmosphere in your dining room, adding a touch of sophistication. Positioned along a wall, it provides extra storage for dishes, cutlery and napkins, while bringing an elegant aesthetic to your space.
A chest of drawers in an office : For an organized home office, a chest of drawers with shelves offers practical storage for files, office supplies and electronic devices, while creating a functional, inspiring workspace. You can also pair it with a desk shelf to optimize vertical space and further structure your work area.
A chest of drawers in the hallway : Simplify your organization with our six-drawer chest of drawers, offering generous storage space and timeless style.

Wood and metal are robust materials that offer excellent durability. Together, they can withstand everyday wear and last for many years without showing signs of major deterioration. Combining wood and metal can create a modern, elegant look. The contrast between the two materials can add depth and visual interest to the room.

In addition, wood and metal furniture suits a variety of interior design styles. Whether your décor is modern, industrial, rustic, or contemporary, these materials can blend in harmoniously. Wood can be cleaned with a soft cloth and a suitable care product, while metal can be wiped with a damp cloth to remove dirt or dust.

The UNIT shelving system was designed to ensure quick and easy assembly.

The steel structure is reinforced with screw-on strengthening strips using an Allen key. The ladders feature fixing pins onto which the wooden shelves clip easily.

For additional storage units, such as the door or drawer cabinet, a Phillips screwdriver will be required for assembly.

Our modular shelving system can adapt to your needs.
