A buffet is such a versatile piece of furniture, as it offers storage and style, and can work in almost any room in your home.

A dining room buffet for storing dinner party essentials. A home office hero for paperwork and colouring crayons. A hallway sideboard for tidying away everyday essentials and displaying a fresh bouquet. Or even a kitchen staple, like a scaled-down dresser.

Call it what you want, this piece of furniture can be used in every room of the house and offers clever storage versatility with its combination of generous drawers, hand-woven baskets and fixed shelving behind shaker style doors.

We partnered with Diane from In My Own Style who transformed her buffet into a TV Cabinet. She placed her buffet underneath a wall mounted TV. She had certain dimensions requirements, it had to fit between two glass doors, and have the height to balance with the TV. Our Halifax Buffet with 4 Doors met all her needs and more! 

With just a couple holes drilled into the back of the unit, this Buffet was able to house all her Media Hardware, hidden behind the shaker style doors.

With a bit of imagination you can transform any piece of furniture into something that works exactly for you and your home. We love the result of Diane’s project and are so happy to see the versatility of a buffet in action!
