When you place a sideboard in your dining room, it is a buffet. Moving it to the living room makes it a sideboard table. Here are five considerations you have to make when choosing a sideboard or buffet cabinet from your favourite Singapore furniture store.
#1 Choose the Right Size
Determining the perfect size for a buffet or sideboard can be tricky. The front to back depth of a buffet/sideboard is between 20 inches and 22 inches. You would need at least 24 inches of space between furniture pieces for comfortable circulation.
#2 Get the Right Height
The perfect height for a buffet table should be the same as your kitchen counter. Most manufacturers make buffets and sideboards between 34 inches and 38 inches tall.
#3 Select the Right Style
Choosing the same style as your current furniture, like a round coffee table, in your Singapore home is the safer option. In an era where the word 'eclectic' has become very popular, adding an antique or vintage buffet sideboard to a room with modern furniture and décor will send the message that you can still appreciate the best the past had to offer.
#4 Find the Right Material
One option is to match the type of wood used in the dining table. Another option is finding something that complements the console table of your Singapore home. If you choose to experiment, find a piece that contrasts your other furniture.
#5 Choose a Piece that Fits Your Needs
Different buffets have different functional features. Set aside time to write down a couple of notes on how you intend to use it. A buffet with drawers, for example, will be great to store things such as napkins, cutlery, plates, place-mats and similar items. It won't be the best option to store bulkier vases or large containers.
