Choosing Sideboard Display Cabinets for a Bungalow

Bungalows tend to have generous floor space but walls broken up by wide windows, patio doors and radiators, which is why a low sideboard display cabinet so often fits better than a tall unit. In this guide we show you how to read your bungalow before buying, noting sill heights, unbroken wall lengths, room flow and ceiling height. We explain how to judge length and depth so walkways stay clear, and compare fully glazed fronts, glass upper sections over drawers, central glazing with solid side doors and shallow glass topped designs. You will find suggestions for matching oak, walnut, teak tones and modern finishes to interwar, mid century and newer bungalows, along with placement ideas beneath picture windows, in through lounges, opposite the sofa and along wide hallways. We also cover handles, soft close drawers and simple styling for the top surface, so the piece looks settled and stays easy to use....
