A narrow sideboard with drawers and cabinets
Beachcrest Home™
If you’re in need of a solution that has both swinging-open cabinets for large storage and slim drawers for, say, flat storage or silverware, select a piece that has both (it’s that simple!).
Since the sideboard itself will be narrow, you’ll need to think carefully about how you’ll use it for storage—perhaps by rotating both silverware and appliances so they’re parallel against the wall. However, as you know, every inch matters—which can make a versatile storage sideboard particularly valuable.
A greyscale narrow depth sideboard with an aged finish
Breakwater Bay
Perhaps you don’t want your sideboard to camouflage with your walls; you want to make a statement.
We’d recommend selecting a cool neutral—grey, navy, white, or black—to show off your sideboard without overwhelming your room. This will also help make styling your cabinet easier—simply pair the cabinet with other neutral decor, and you’ll be good to go.

A top shelf shallow depth sideboard
17 Stories
Whether you’d like a literal top shelf in your space or you’re interested in storing your appliances closer to the floor, this sideboard trend (with a closed cabinet on the bottom and smaller shelves up top) offers easy access and practical decorating opportunities.
Simply place your beautiful plates or prettier glassware on those upper shelves, and you’ll have a gorgeous, artsy decoration without seeming like you’re trying too hard.
A glammed up narrow sideboard that keeps it remarkably subtle
Etta Avenue™
Perhaps you’re trying to toe the line between modern minimalism and art deco glam. A wooden sideboard with tiny, subtle golden accents is just what you’re looking for!
We like a very understated sideboard that’s elevated with golden hardware for legs. This amps up the geometric feel of the art deco era while offering tons of practical storage space.

A mid century modern skinny sideboard
17 Stories
A practical cabinet with the distinctive angled legs popular in the ‘50s and ‘60s: If that’s what you’re looking for, you’re in luck, as this type of furniture is all over the place right now!
Look for real hardwood and doors with glass or wire inserts to achieve the vintage-meets-modern vibe that you’re sourcing. Keeping your hardware and furniture structure all in one tone will help keep these older pieces looking new in your home.
A narrow buffet cabinet that doubles as an art piece
Wade Logan®
If you think about it, the doors of a sideboard are about the same size as your average wall hanging or painting. If you live in a smaller space, it might make sense to double up.
Purchase a sideboard with flat doors that have been inlaid with a detailed painted scene, a 3D metallic piece of art, or a sculpted or carved pattern. This adds visual interested in an unexpected way—always a great choice for savvy decorating.

A narrow sideboard cabinet on legs
Red Barrel Studio®
Hoping to achieve an elevated look (perhaps, literally)? If you have a smaller space, boosting the eye upward can really help make your home look more intentional. Placing a slim cabinet on legs can help with this effect.
Bonus points: Paint your sideboard the same color as your walls, and it’ll recede into the background while providing key storage. This will help make your home look larger and less cluttered!

A narrow buffet that makes a statement
Pursuing a maximalist vibe? Forget everything about clean lines and neutral colors, and instead source a sideboard that’s painted in jewel tones, has a detailed drawer decoration or carving, or both.
We like a carved door that allows slight access to the other side—with windows, perhaps—so you can see what’s inside. This makes storage (and finding what you have in storage) much easier!

With a vibe reminiscent of both mid-century modern architecture and more rustic pieces, this cabinet takes advantage of the very current two-toned trend to add an interesting piece to your place.

A shallow sideboard with a sliding farmhouse door
We’ve all seen the trend of sliding barn doors in rustic, farmhouse-inspired home looks. If you don’t have the space to do this large-scale, use the same idea on your sideboard.
This has practical benefits: Since you won’t be swinging a cabinet door outward, you don’t have to account for that mostly-unused space!
