At Charter Furniture Solutions, we love how a statement piece like a credenza can make a room pop! We are always looking for unique and bold furniture pieces that gives a space its own personality. We have some tips and inspiration for you below on how you can find a statement piece that will always make you smile when you walk into the room.
Follow these tips to “wow” with a credenza in your home:
Choose a Striking Design
Look for a credenza with a unique and eye-catching design. Consider interesting shapes, textures, and finishes that align with your personal style and the overall aesthetic of your home. This could be a credenza with intricate carvings, a sleek and modern design, or a vintage piece with character.
Optimal Placement
Find the perfect location to showcase your credenza. It should be a prominent spot that draws attention as soon as someone enters the room. Consider placing it against a solid-colored wall, in an area with good lighting, or where it can be seen from multiple angles.
Highlight with Lighting
Use lighting to enhance the impact of your credenza with lighting fixtures to highlight its features. Consider installing wall sconces or placing table lamps on either side of the credenza to create a warm, inviting glow. Additionally, incorporate accessories such as mirrors, wall art, or decorative panels to further enhance its visual impact.
Curate a Thoughtful Display
Style the top of your credenza with carefully curated items that add to its visual appeal. Create an arrangement of decorative objects, artwork, or personal items that reflect your taste. Pay attention to scale, height variations, and color coordination to create an aesthetically pleasing arrangement.
Play with Colors and Contrasts
Consider the color palette of the room and choose a credenza that either complements the existing colors or provides a striking contrast. For example, if your room features neutral tones, a bold-colored credenza can make a strong statement. On the other hand, a neutral-colored credenza in a room with vibrant colors can create a sense of balance.
Surrounding Elements
Ensure that the surrounding elements in the room support and enhance the look of the credenza. Coordinate the style and materials of nearby furniture pieces to create a cohesive and harmonious look. Use accessories, such as artwork, mirrors, or plants, to complement the credenza and create visual interest in the entire space.
Consider Wall Treatments
Enhance the impact of your credenza with bold wallpaper, a textured wall finish, or a large-scale artwork behind it. These elements can provide a backdrop that elevates the visual impact of the credenza.
Keep it Organized
As a functional furniture piece, it should also serve its purpose. Ensure that the storage compartments are organized and clutter-free. Use decorative boxes or trays to keep smaller items neatly arranged.
