Get the right size
The key to styling a chest of drawers like Contador, for example, is to create a balanced and effective layout that elevates the beauty and patina of the piece.

Justify
Media units styling is often a balancing act that you can play around with over time. If you are using a Radio sideboard to support a television, you will need little more creativity to place your accessories. So justifying it to one side is a great way to balance out the other side and an easy rule to follow.

Colors and art
Colored rugs and paintings are the perfect complements to bring life to an oak sideboard like Scarpa. If it’s not possible to hang up a painting, you can simply lean it securely. This will add height and complete the overall look.

Geometry
A creative or design oak bookshelf like X2, for example, is the perfect piece to play with geometry in styling, particularly in a more traditional setting. To really make your bookshelf a statement piece, explore all the shapes and place heavy items at the bottom and small decoration elements, like a stylish candle, at the top to enhance the scale.
