Transform IKEA furniture into a unique interior piece

Do you dream of a custom-made TV cabinet and a tall cabinet that fits perfectly in your living room? Richard shows you how you can transform a standard Ikea piece of furniture into a personal eye-catcher with a touch of creativity and some skill. Read on and get inspired!

The beginning: from sheet material to design

The project began with carefully cut wood by TOSIZE.fr. The cabinet parts were left outside as a blank canvas, waiting to be transformed into trendy furniture pieces. This is where we get to the essence of DIY: choosing your own materials and dimensions to create something unique.

A match with the living room

The living room is the space where a TV cabinet and tall cabinet should not only be functional, but also contribute aesthetically to the atmosphere and interior. Richard's choice of a neutral colour palette ensures that the furniture fits seamlessly with the modern and light look of the room.

Details that make the difference

The construction of the cabinets is sleek and simple, but it is the details that make Richard’s project unique. The tall cabinet is built almost to the ceiling, which makes the room appear higher. For the TV cabinet, Richard opted for a combination of closed compartments and an open shelf, which creates an exciting contrast and offers display space for personal items.

The power of making it yourself

Making your own furniture offers enormous freedom in terms of size and choice of materials, which not only saves you money, but also allows you to create a piece of furniture that fits perfectly into your interior. The flexibility of building it yourself means that you get so much more than a standard Ikea piece of furniture: you get a piece of furniture that is tailor-made for your home.

The style of the project

The end result is a showpiece of minimalist beauty, inspired by Scandinavian design. The thoughtful placement and soft colour nuances create a harmonious and calm look that is very much of today.

Tips from Richard

Be creative; then you can make nice things. We used the TOSIZE.fr cabinet as a high cabinet in the room. Left out 1 compartment and the IKEA besta cabinet disappears there. Very happy with the sleek result.
