Create your own custom IVAR wall unit, by Suzanne

Discover Suzanne's homemade IVAR wall unit

Suzanne has given her own unique twist to the classic IVAR wall unit using OPMAATZAGEN.nl, and the result is impressive! With an eye for detail and a love of DIY, Suzanne has enriched her living room with a custom-made wall unit. This inspirational project shows how pine carpentry and clever sizing create a functional piece of furniture that also looks great in the room as a design element.

The design and construction

The wall unit consists of a series of symmetrical compartments and pine panel doors, where the natural character of the pine wood together with a subtle choice of colours creates a calm and warm look. Specially cut to size by OPMAATZAGEN.nl, this project ensures a seamless connection with the space. The combination of closed cabinet doors and open shelves not only offers storage space, but also creates a playful effect.

The perfect addition to the living room

In the living room, this wall unit comes into its own. It not only promotes storage space, but also functions as a decorative and orderly element that promotes homeliness. The use of pine wood paneling provides a warm and natural look, which harmoniously matches the wooden floor. The wall unit offers an organized home base for books, accessories and other personal items.

The benefits of self-build

Carrying out a project like this yourself means having full control over the dimensions and the materials used. Suzanne was able to tailor the dimensions of her wall of cabinets to the wishes and needs within the available space. Furthermore, choosing to build it yourself provides significant savings on the budget, without compromising on quality and style.

A stylish and practical project

The style of the wall unit is 'Scandinavian minimalist'. The sleek design with the natural texture of the wood creates a calming and modern feel. Due to the simple, yet elegant lines, the wall unit fits into various interior styles and offers a timeless appeal.

Pine carpentry panel: the advantages

The choice for Pine carpentry panel 18 mm was a conscious one. This type of wood is known for its durability and the warm look it gives to every project. The panels are easy to work with and assemble, ideal for do-it-yourselfers like Suzanne. In addition, it is an ecologically responsible choice, because pine grows relatively quickly and therefore offers a more sustainable option.
