The right choice is usually a long, fairly low piece with simple lines, sized to the longest solid wall of the dining room or to a chimney breast alcove. In this guide we look at where a sideboard works best in a typical Edwardian layout, from the dining room wall opposite the fireplace to the hallway, and how to get the scale right so it neither shrinks in a tall room nor cuts across the picture rail. We compare mid century, solid wood, painted and contemporary styles, explain how to respect period features such as fireplaces, radiators and original cupboards, and look at interior layouts for storing tableware and linens. We finish with ideas for styling the top, choosing colours and a short checklist to use before you decide.
