Bedroom Chest of Drawers – Stylish Storage

Bedroom Sideboard — Storage & Ambiance in Your Bedroom

A sideboard in the bedroom is more than just a piece of storage furniture. It's a statement piece that significantly shapes the ambiance of your bedroom. Unlike a wardrobe, a sideboard offers open storage for clothes, accessories, and personal items, as well as a surface where you can place decorations, a mirror, or lighting. At Industrial Home, we custom-make bedroom sideboards to your exact specifications — in the dimensions, material, and style that perfectly suit your bedroom.

Bedroom Sideboard vs. Living Room Sideboard

A bedroom sideboard has different requirements than a living room sideboard. In the bedroom, it's all about:

• Appropriate Height — In the bedroom, you often combine the sideboard with a mirror. A height of 80–90 cm is ideal: high enough for ample storage, low enough for a large mirror above it.
• Quiet Operation — Soft-close drawers are especially valuable in the bedroom — no noise early in the morning or late at night.
• Combination with Nightstands — The sideboard should match the nightstands and bed in material and style. A set of nightstand + sideboard in the same material gives the bedroom a cohesive, finished feel.
• Ambiance — Ambiance is particularly important in the bedroom. Warm materials like solid oak or walnut, or a calm color in white or soft grey, contribute to a relaxed bedroom atmosphere.

Dimensions for a Bedroom Sideboard

The most popular widths for bedroom sideboards:

• 60–80 cm — Compact, for small bedrooms or as an addition next to a wardrobe.
• 90–120 cm — Standard bedroom width. Fits most bedroom walls and offers ample storage.
• 130–160 cm — Wide, for more spacious bedrooms or if the sideboard also functions as a TV unit.

Height: 75–90 cm is standard for a bedroom sideboard. Depth: 40–50 cm. But at Industrial Home, you determine the dimensions — down to the centimeter.

Materials for a Bedroom Sideboard

Solid Oak

Oak is warm, timeless, and gives the bedroom a natural feel. Available in natural oak (light, Scandinavian), oak (dark, woody), or stained in any desired shade. An oak sideboard combines beautifully with oak nightstands and a bed.

Solid Walnut

Walnut is dark, elegant, and luxurious. A walnut sideboard in the bedroom immediately creates a high-quality, warm atmosphere. Combines beautifully with cream-white or grey walls and linen or velvet bedding.

HPL or Painted White

For a bright, fresh bedroom, HPL in white or light grey, or painted MDF, is a perfect choice. Matches almost any bed and bedroom style. Also check out our white sideboard page.

Combinations

A popular combination is a sideboard with an oak or walnut top and white or grey side panels and doors. This creates a two-tone effect that is both warm and modern.

Combine with Nightstand and Mirror

A bedroom set consisting of a sideboard + matching nightstands gives the room a cohesive, finished feel. At Industrial Home, many customers order both pieces of furniture simultaneously in the same material. This ensures that colors and finishes match 100%.

Above the sideboard, a mirror is almost always a good choice. A rectangular mirror with 60–80 cm width and 80–100 cm height fits perfectly on a sideboard of 90–120 cm width. Round mirrors create a more playful, modern effect.

Tips for a Stylish Bedroom with a Sideboard

A sideboard in the bedroom has the greatest impact when you consciously use it as a style element. Some tips:

• Symmetry — Flank the sideboard with two identical table lamps or candle holders for a calm, balanced look.
• Mirror above the sideboard — A rectangular or round mirror above the sideboard makes the room appear larger and gives the arrangement a classic, rounded overall look.
• Decoration on the top — Less is more. Opt for a plant, a few candles, or a beautiful bowl. Three objects of different heights work best.
• Color Coordination — Make sure the sideboard harmonizes with at least one other piece of furniture or textile in the room (bed, curtains, pillows). This creates cohesion.
• Lighting — Atmospheric lighting on or next to the sideboard (LED strips, table lamp, wall lamp) makes the bedroom even more a place of tranquility.
