Stylish Compartment Cabinet for the Living Room, by Marnix

A homemade shelving unit as an eye-catcher in the living room.

Have you ever dreamed of a stylish and functional shelving unit in your living room? Marnix made this dream a reality with his self-made shelving unit, finished in the timeless color RAL9010. This piece of furniture is not just a cabinet; it is a stunning combination of a display system and a TV cabinet, perfectly integrated into the living space.

The construction and color

The shelving unit is made of MDF Primed, an excellent choice for painting projects. The cabinets were cut to size by OPMAATZAGEN.nl, ensuring a sleek and professional finish. The fresh white color RAL9010 gives the room an open and light appearance, while providing a beautiful contrast with the surrounding dark elements in the room.

Placement and function

The cabinet is cleverly positioned next to the window, allowing natural light to fall beautifully on the white surfaces. This not only projects light into the room but also makes the cabinet a central focal point. The compartments offer ample space for books, decorations, and electronics, while the cabinet doors at the bottom neatly keep any playful clutter out of sight.

Unique features and design

What makes this cabinet special is the custom-made layout that perfectly meets Marnix's wishes. The compartment for the TV is seamlessly integrated, making the piece of furniture both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Thanks to the custom-cut parts from OPMAATZAGEN.nl, the construction of the cabinet was easier than ever, and the result is a sturdy piece of furniture that will last for years.

Why make it yourself?

Designing and building a modular unit yourself gives you the freedom to fully follow your own style. Additionally, custom work offers the opportunity to create exactly the unit that fits your space and storage needs. Moreover, making furniture yourself is often more budget-friendly, while with the right tools and tips, you can also enjoy the process.

The benefits of MDF Primed

MDF Primed: This choice of material is ideal if you want to work with a pre-lacquered surface, which saves time when painting. MDF is also particularly smooth and easy to work with, which is crucial for a sleek, modern look like that of Marnix's cabinet.

Scandinavian style

The shelving unit exudes a Scandinavian style with its minimalist design and clean lines. The choice of neutral colors, combined with practical storage solutions, creates a calm and harmonious atmosphere in the room where the cabinet is located.
