A buffet is worthy of being called a go anywhere piece. Upstairs, downstairs. Living room storage piece, hallway display surface. Bathroom floor-standing vanity cabinet, home office filing favourite. This Halifax buffet is essentially a large sideboard with two rows of shelf space in each of its cabinet section and glass doors to turn whatever you fill it with into a showcase.

Style tip: because your buffet''s contents will be on show, keep the top surface fuss-free so your look doesn''t get overcrowded. A statement lamp vase at one end, and maybe a small stack of coffee table books somewhere in the centre is perfect.
