Modern Oak Chest of Drawers for Living and Dining Rooms CARLA

Modern wooden chest of drawers for living and dining spaces

CARLA is a modern wooden chest of drawers designed for interiors where practical storage needs to work alongside a clean, contemporary look. Solid oak brings natural grain and warmth, while the black laminated board creates a stronger contrast and gives the piece a more distinctive character. The layout is useful in both living and dining areas: two drawers keep smaller items organised, a closed cabinet with a shelf provides space for things you prefer to keep out of sight, and a second cabinet with glass fronts creates a dedicated display area for tableware, glassware, ceramics or personal objects. This mix of concealed and visible storage is the main advantage of CARLA.

Solid oak, black details and a glass-fronted display section

The CARLA construction combines solid oak with black laminated board, using the darker surfaces to frame the natural wood rather than hide it. The glass-fronted cabinet is finished with a black aluminium frame and contains an oak shelf, while the second cabinet and two drawers provide practical everyday storage. CARLA is delivered ready assembled, so there is no flat-pack construction to complete before use. A choice of wood finishes allows the oak tone to be coordinated with flooring, a dining table or other furniture already in the room. Because wood colour can look different under warm or cool lighting, it is worth checking oak colour samples before making the final choice. For a more consistent interior, you can also explore the CARLA collection and compare other pieces built around the same design language.

Choose the standard CARLA or adapt the storage to your room

Before ordering, consider what the cabinet will actually hold and which part of the storage should remain visible. In a dining room, the closed sections can take table linen and larger pieces of tableware while the glazed section works well for items you want to display. In a living room, the same layout can separate everyday storage from decorative objects without requiring several smaller cabinets. The wood finish should also be chosen in relation to the floor, wall colour and nearby furniture, because the oak remains an important visual part of the design. If the standard CARLA layout is close to what you need but the room requires different proportions or another agreed change, use the dresser customization service. Describe the available space and intended use; the feasible scope of changes should then be confirmed for this specific construction before production.
