Modern Dining Room Built In Buffet
Built-In Buffets Beef Up Dining Room Style
Call them sideboards or dining buffets. Stack on a china cabinet or not. No matter the style, these built-ins serve up sophisticated storage
Built-in furniture has been a part of residential architecture for hundreds of years, but it wasn't until the Arts and Crafts movement that built-ins reached their full potential. The dining room buffet in particular has emerged as one of my favorite built-in pieces. Whether it features a china cabinet, acts as more of a sideboard, is recessed into the wall or projects into the room, it allows a small dining area to live large.
Since the Arts and Crafts movement, built-in dining buffets have been modified and styled to work beautifully in many different types of homes. From classic sideboards in stained wood to modern buffets in a mix of finishes, dining room built-ins are home runs in terms of storage, style and sophistication.
In Arts and Crafts homes, you're likely to find an open dining area with a built-in buffet. In some, the buffet even features a pass-through to the kitchen, as efficiency was a top priority in the Arts and Crafts movement.
