Depth is what makes a console a console
A console is a shallow storage piece that leans against a wall and adds surface without narrowing a route. Depths in this category can run from very shallow bodies around 39 cm up to sideboard proportions near 85 cm, and that single number decides where the piece can stand. Below 40 cm the unit keeps corridors, entrance halls and waiting areas passable. At 80 cm and above it stops behaving like a circulation piece and becomes a serving unit belonging to a dining or lounge setting. Measure the clear passage in front of the wall first, then decide on width.

Surface height in entrances and waiting areas
The top of a console is a standing surface. Tops in the 76-78 cm band give a comfortable height for putting something down and picking it up again, and at that height a chair can be pulled up to turn the console into a temporary work surface. Taller bodies become display surfaces; lower ones turn into support surfaces sitting behind a sofa. In reception areas a console usually works on the same line as the desk, so keeping the top level at or below the reception desk reads visually cleaner than sitting above it.
A decorative face over a functional body
A console does two jobs at once: the visible face sets the character of the space, while the body absorbs everyday clutter. Open compartments keep frequently used items within reach; closed sections hide cables, paperwork and personal belongings. Several pieces in this category are offered with customisable finishes and feet, and the choice of feet matters more than it looks. Slim legs lift the body off the floor and read light, while a panel base grounds the mass and sits more solidly. In residential and hospitality projects, using different widths from one family across the entrance, living area and bedroom keeps the scheme coherent.
When another carcass fits better
If you need closed, deep volume, go to storage cabinets; for books and files in constant use, bookshelves. For a low surface in the middle of a seating group, see coffee tables. The piece that actually defines a welcome area is not a console but a reception desk, so review reception desks for that brief. To compare storage types together, use the storage parent category.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a console table and a sideboard or buffet?
Consoles are typically narrower and taller, designed for hallways, entryways, or behind sofas, offering a surface for decor or keys without much storage. Sideboards and buffets are generally wider, shorter, and provide significant storage for dining essentials. Kavela Furniture offers a range of designs, from sleek consoles perfect for tight spaces to versatile sideboards like our Bloom, all crafted with exceptional quality for your home.
How do I choose the right size console for my entryway or living room?
Consider the wall space available and the primary function. For entryways, ensure it doesn't obstruct traffic flow. For living rooms, it should be proportionate to the sofa or wall it's placed against. Measure the width, height, and depth you need. At Kavela Furniture, we offer made-to-measure production, ensuring your console perfectly fits your unique space and design vision, backed by our 2-year warranty.
What are some popular ways to style or use a console table in my home?
Console tables are incredibly versatile! They're perfect for displaying art, lamps, and decorative items in an entryway, creating a welcoming focal point. In a dining room, they can serve as a stylish serving station. Behind a sofa, they offer extra surface space for drinks or books.
