How much space do you need for a drawer unit?

Furniture Ferret: You need extra space in front of a chest of drawers in addition to the floor space needed for the unit itself. You will likely need enough room to be able to fully extend the drawers, as otherwise getting to items at the bottom of the drawers can be uncomfrotable. Ideally you should also be able to stand in front of the cabinet, but if this is not possible, position the unit so you can stand at the side. We would suggest leaving as much space in front of the unit as its depth, so a 50 cm deep unit would need 100 cm in total. While drawers may not extend to the full depth of the cabinet, and it may not be possible to pull them out fully, this is a safe estimate. Filing cabinets are sometimes pretty deep and so may need a fair amount of space.

How can I coordinate colours?

Furniture Ferret: If you have the option to choose from different colours for a chest of drawers that fits your space, it is useful to know how different colours work together. The two things to consider when it comes to colours is balance and associations. Balance means that the colours should be coordinated in some way, so that the space looks like a unit. Usual techniques to achieve this are considering a colour wheel, and selecting colours that are either quite close to each other (colours that are only different in lightness or intensity always go together, but small variations in the actual hue can also be fine), or relatively far, for example on opposite sides of the wheel (giving you complementary colours like blue and yellow). Associations with and emotions connected to colours are also important, and there are many guides for these from those by 19th-century Impressionist painters to modern interior design guides. It is quite probable that these associations are cultural and learnt, which means that they can be very different for different people. The associations are even often contradictory, making it even more difficult to use them as a guide. Blue is often connected to productivity, but also calmness, stability and even sadness. Green is clearly the colour of nature, and is considered to evoke safety, luck and envy (though in other cultures envy is yellow). Yellow is always a shouty colour and can evoke brightness, warmth, attention and energy (likely evoking the sun), except when it is dark and becomes brown, when it is said to be a sign of comfort and relaxation. Red is considered to be the colour of friendship, willpower, leadership, desire and revenge - a very wide range of emotions. But it is clear that in nature, it signals danger or importance, so it should be put next to a neutral colour to allow the brain to rest. These associations point in so many directions that these guidelines all seem to boil down to just one piece of advice: pause and see what the colour means for you.

From the history of furniture: Brass and copper utensils Part 4

Having all too briefly considered the brass and copper utensils used for heating and cooking, it is next in order to consider their use in holding a light. Before we can properly speak of the way our ancestors lighted their homes and buildings, we must glance at the scanty means which they had at command for getting that started. There were, of course, no friction matches, their invention taking place about 1827. The earliest friction matches which were used in this country were imported from France, and there is a story concerning their early manufacture in America which goes to prove how seldom the inventor profits by his invention. In 1836, nearly ten years from their first use, friction matches imported from France were clumsy phosphoric ones. They were made by dipping the match-stick first into sulphur and then into a paste composed of chloride of potash, red lead, and loaf sugar. Each box of matches was accompanied by a bottle of sulphuric acid, into which every match had to be dipped in order to light it.

The attention of a young man living in Springfield, Massachusetts, L. C. Allen by name, was attracted to this subject, and he set to work to invent a match which could be lighted by drawing it across a rough surface. He succeeded, and was urged to take out a patent. This he neglected to do, and when at last he took steps in the matter he found that a patent had already been obtained by a pedlar from Chicopee, Massachusetts, who had picked up in some way the results of Mr. Allen's labours. The end of the matter was that Phillips, the pedlar, gave Allen leave to make matches under his patent, in consideration of Allen's waiving his claim and not instigating any litigation. So the inventor of friction matches became a manufacturer of matches under another man's patent.

Our philosophy

We want every one of us to live comfortably even if they only have a small area they call home. We scan multiple webshops for thousands of desks, cabinets, bookshelves, storage units, beds, sofabeds and so on by size, to find just the right piece to go in that unused corner and turn it into a practical office, or to find that extra long bed that is still narrow enough to squeeze through the door. From the hall to the living room, don't live around furniture - get furniture that lives with you.

We also help customers in many other regions. You can look for 105cm wide chests of drawers in Australia, “commodes et caissons à tiroirs - largeur 105 cm” in France or 42 inch wide chests of drawers in the US.
