10 ideas to make a piece of plasterboard furniture at home

A client recently wanted to take advantage of a small wall in her home to put the TV cabinet there. The fact is that the standard TV furniture that we saw did not take full advantage of the wall, and it had to be done, since the space was tight. So, in the end we decided to assemble a built-in plasterboard TV cabinet, taking advantage of every inch of that wall.

It seemed to me such an effective, definitive and versatile solution that I had no choice but to write an article with ideas for making plasterboard furniture for the whole house. Let's go see them.

Occupying the whole wall

If you want to make the most of the space on one of the walls of the living room and create a TV cabinet, a plasterboard cabinet adapts to your tastes, to your storage needs and there is no better way to take advantage of the space than by installing one.

Naturally this requires a small work, but plasterboard is a fairly clean, fast and relatively cheap assembly system. If you dare, you can request free estimates here at Zaask.

Let's see the following idea to put a piece of plasterboard furniture that I liked a lot.

To integrate the fireplace

As I told you, the versatility of plasterboard has no limits. That you need to integrate a wood-burning fireplace plus a TV cabinet and a shelf, with plasterboard you can do it. I particularly liked this idea. It seems to me a nice solution to house several important elements in a room in a single place with enough elegance.

Let's continue with another idea:

To separate and delimit zones

Currently open and communicated spaces are a must indoors. But that does not mean that each space is well delimited or defined. In addition to the furniture and decoration that help us for this purpose, depending on how the space is, we can also install a piece of plasterboard furniture to delimit certain areas while adding functionality to the space.

Let's keep going.

To locate the desktop

We have already seen many ideas on the blog to set up a desk or office at home, but not this one. As I have been saying from the beginning of the article, plasterboard allows us to create the structure that we want. If you have decided to assemble a piece of plasterboard furniture, you may be interested in it having a desk area, thus saving you the bulk of the desk furniture, and having everything integrated into a single space.

Plasterboard and wood

Another advantage of assembling a plasterboard cabinet is that we can add all kinds of materials and perfect it, such as lighting for the niches, as well as completing it with wood in the form of doors, drawers and tops, as we see above. lines. If you liked this idea, you have hundreds of photos on the internet with a simple search to inspire you.

To get the most out of it, talk to the plasterboard assembler, he will help you design it or draw it yourself and show him the sketch so that he can carry it out, since once it is assembled there is no going back. Here you can request free quotes to assemble the furniture, and if you are moving to your new apartment where you want to assemble the plasterboard furniture, here at Zaask you can also request quotes for removals.

It does not have to be natural wood, we can also use lacquered or painted wood in the same color as the plasterboard, creating an extremely contemporary piece of furniture.

with glass

In addition to wood, we can also add glass to the shelves in the form of doors or on the niche itself as an envelope. In the furniture above these lines, in addition to wood, there are some glass doors that give the furniture a very elegant touch. Naturally, all this has to be done by a professional.

But it is a definitive piece of furniture that will last a lifetime and to which we can change its appearance whenever we want, changing the material of the doors or painting the piece of furniture itself.

To locate a shelf

This is usually one of the most used solutions. To integrate a shelf that also houses a fireplace. But beyond the idea, I like this solution and I recommend it for how attractive it is and the possibilities it offers us, depending on where the fireplace is located.

In this case, the interior design studio The Room Studio placed the fireplace in the center of the wall, leaving space on each side to create a symmetrical wooden shelf thanks to the space created by the plasterboard.

Leave the corners open

Although they take up less space than traditional standard furniture, a piece of plasterboard furniture is still just another piece of furniture in the home. A trick to make it have less visual weight is, as we see in the image above, to leave the corners open, in this case a corner, making the furniture have the same storage space, but is visually much lighter not being completely closed.

merely decorative

Normally, when a piece of plasterboard furniture is built, it is done with the intention of giving it a practical use, but plasterboard can also be used to create an interior architectural element that adds decoration, as we see in the image above.

In this sense, the decorative niches are the winners due to popularity, either with electrical installation to put lighting or without it, simply to put different decorative pieces.

As you can see, plasterboard is an extremely versatile material with which we can increase the decorative power of our home, as well as its storage capacity, and all with a clean, fast and effective solution.
