Why Don’t You Put The Kitchen Unit In The Living Room?

Monday, May 10, 2010 Michael

It’s an interesting point, why do we put furniture in a certain room just because a website categorises it there? Of course, certain items like a sofa probably won’t replace a traditional dining table and chairs set in the kitchen, but, other items such as kitchen cabinets can be modified and placed in the living room to be used as a multimedia centre for your TV. It opens up endless possibilities when it comes to transforming your home with unique furniture that you wouldn’t expect to be there.

A fantastic furniture blog called IKEA Hacker, features posts from its readers on how they have transformed a piece of furniture or customised some materials to create stunning and practical pieces of furniture. There are some great ideas available on this blog and many posts feature instructions on how you can recreate their designs. This fantastic coffee table has been cut in half allowing you to re-use the table in a multitude of different combinations. So now you can have a coffee table, lamp table and side table all in one.


Have you ever painted/stained your Pinesolutions furniture? Or have you ever customised one of our pieces and transformed it into something completely different? We would love to hear from you and see the finished result. Get in touch with us over at our Facebook fan page.

If you are a new building home, place a kitchen island are hassle free. Still, if you renovate your House and place a kitchen unit island for the first time, you must ensure that electricity, gas and water under the ground run.
