Living Room Cabinets
With the holidays just around the corner and family gatherings in the living room to watch their favourite Christmas movies, we thought we’d share some of our family room cabinet designs.
When you design your living room or basement entertainment center, try to strike a balance between open shelving and hidden storage with cabinet doors. The open shelving is a great way for you to display family photos and decor pieces while the cabinet doors allow you to tuck away any miscellaneous items. The centerpiece of your entertainment unit is the perfect spot for your TV.
Shaker-style cabinets are a popular choice for TV units with white being the colour of choice. White cabinets in the living room keep the room looking neutral and bright. Check out some of our favourite TV units below.
