Decorating Your Home With Accent Cabinets

Accent cabinets are functional and decorative pieces of furniture that can instantly perk up any room in a house. They come in a variety of sizes, styles, and materials, making them impeccable pieces of furniture to add an element of drama, color, and definition to a room.
To invest in an accent cabinet for decoration purposes, some important tips and guidelines are:

  • The Room/Area: The first thing to consider when decorating a room with an accent cabinet is the space you intend to place it in. Start with thinking about the area where you might want to place it e.g. the entryway, dining room, living room, bedroom, etc. Based on that, you should determine other factors such as size, shape, detailing, storage and other elements.
  • Size: Accent cabinets come in a variety of sizes, making them suitable for almost any room in the house. Some are large and elegant looking while others are compact and great for smaller spaces. The accurate size of an accent cabinet will depend on the room it is to be placed in and what use it will be put to. If storage and organization are huge considerations for you, a large accent cabinet should suffice and vice versa.
  • Functionality: If your primary purpose of investing in an accent cabinet is aesthetics and decoration, you will need an accent cabinet with attractive detailing as opposed to the storage area. However, if you want both, you can choose from a variety of options in terms of the number of shelves, cabinet doors, width, depth, and height.
  • Material: Accent cabinets are usually made of materials such as wood, clear glass, veneers, engineered wood, etc. They comprise of additional parts such as glass inlays, adjustable shelves, brass-tone accents, front doors with scrolled grillwork, etc.
  • Design/Style: When choosing the style of an accent cabinet, opt for one that adds an element of interest in the room you place it in. Create a contrast of colors and textures in a room with your choice of an accent cabinet. Consider the color on your walls, flooring, countertops (in bathrooms and the kitchen), appliances, etc., when choosing an accent cabinet.

For an accent cabinet to leave a mark, it should stand out from the rest of the furniture in a room. So when purchasing one, look for something that will add character and texture to a simple-looking room in the form of unique design, special hardware, different color, etc.
