Hi~ Hello everyone, I just installed the sideboard in my new home. Sister Fei.
"Thanks to the sideboard, my dining table is empty."
Regarding the issue of whether to install a sideboard, Sister Fei no longer wants to discuss it, because it is really very! have! must! want!
For people like me who hate having a dining table full of things, the sideboard is a kitchen storage savior.
Nowadays, most families want to install a sideboard to share the storage pressure of the kitchen countertop and dining table.
Especially for friends who like baking and cooking, small appliances such as ovens, soymilk machines, food processors, and water dispensers do not need to be left in the kitchen to soak in oil. It is easy to separate Chinese and Western food, and serve multiple purposes with one stone.
But how to choose a sideboard? How to make it more useful? Let’s take a look.
/Layout according to the characteristics of the house type/
DESIGN
Built-in sideboard
If the background wall of the restaurant is a non-load-bearing wall.
Knock down the wall, borrow the original space, use the cabinet as the wall, and make a built-in cabinet, which is beautiful and elegant.
The whole wall design in gray is very high-end, suitable for "large families" with a wide dining area and bright lighting.
If it is not used only as a wine cabinet, it is recommended to design a console at the waist position.
If it is adjacent to a bedroom wall, it is not recommended to smash down the entire wall, otherwise the sound insulation will become worse.
Depending on the width of the wall, you can smash 1/3 or 1/2 of the wall to make a built-in sideboard, while taking into account the problems of mealside storage and bedroom sound insulation.
If you don’t want to break into the wall, you can make a ceiling-mounted sideboard, which can also create a wall-mounted effect.
For apartments with ceiling decorative strips, you should pay attention to the harmonious matching of lines when deciding on the design of the sideboard.
The refrigerator and Buddhist niche at home can be embedded in the cabinet, making the home space more concise and smooth.
Floor cabinet type sideboard
Are you worried that the top cabinet is too depressing for a small apartment? The floor cabinet type is much simpler, and you don’t have to choose the apartment type.
In the absence of special requirements, the depth of the base cabinet (usually the width of the worktop) is generally 400mm.
You can use this size to determine whether your dining room can make room for a sideboard.
Card seat type sideboard
In recent years, people are very keen on moving card seats home, and families who have installed them say that they are very friendly to small apartments.

The base cabinet can be used for storage if you sit and lie on the top. But the capacity is limited, so you have to prepare a base cabinet next to it for storage.

If space permits, it is recommended to integrate the card holder and the sideboard to make it more practical.
If the entrance door faces the restaurant area, make an L-shaped booth against the wall so as not to block the flow of movement in and out of the door.
Children sit in booths against the wall, so they don’t have to worry about the danger of the chair tipping over, and parents feel much more at ease while eating.
Partition-type sideboard
The partition function here usually serves as a partition for the guest room and dining room.
Small partitions can also be designed as bar counters, perfect for open or semi-open kitchens!
Pair it with a high stool and enjoy a drink with friends or loved ones without going out.
Special-shaped sideboard
Is the restaurant too small and can’t find a place to install a sideboard? Have you ever seen such "abnormal" operations? ↓
①Abandon the kitchen door: If you really don’t have space for a sideboard, but you really want it, you can choose between kitchen cabinet doors and sideboards.
Choosing a range hood with high suction power is an important prerequisite for renovation.
② You don’t even need a wall: a sideboard is placed between the load-bearing column and the wall of the open kitchen. It is very convenient to store sundries below and serve as a serving table above.

I personally support the establishment of an open kitchen. Installing an integrated stove can effectively solve the problem of oil smoke.

③ Surrounded sideboard: If you are worried about blocking the aisle space, you can also make a "surrounded" sideboard around the kitchen door, top cabinet Store napkins, dry goods, etc., and put heavier wine and commonly used daily sundries in the side cabinet.
④Multifunctional corner cabinet: For apartments with corner space in the restaurant, it can be made into a corner cabinet for dining. It can be used for storage while dining, and can be embedded in large appliances such as refrigerators and ovens. It can also be used very well. Decorate the walls.
⑤ Dining wall cabinet: Really not enough room to install it? Then install it directly on the wall. Place toothpicks, paper towels, placemats, and condiments to keep the table clean and tidy at all times.
In short, as long as you think about it, you can always make room for the sideboard~
Finally, let me summarize a few points

● The important role of the sideboard: liberating dining table and kitchen storage
● The sideboard holder can save aisle space
● The low partition of the sideboard can realize the living room and dining room Partition
●The wall-mounted sideboard is more beautiful and elegant
