You may have seen it if you live in Chicago, but you’ve probably never seen it on a credenza! This piece features spliced graphics of the Chinatown lift bridge. It’s one of the most iconic bridges in the city and now, in your living room.
Check it out in person at Modern Cooperative!
This hand painted credenza is about as punk-rock as you can get. Refinished, then defaced with a dripped stalactites clinging from the pulls, it’s sure to be a conversation piece wherever you decide to place it. Punk rock goes with everything.

This cart is not for the faint of heart (or style). The angular edges of the industrial welding cart were picked up in the detailing of the reclaimed wood/resin top as well as the bottom shelves. The linear white & wood counter design looks great under almost every liquor bottle.

Even though the natural habit of things is to fall into a disorganized state, you can break the rule with this handy cart! That’s right… a heavy reclaimed butcher block top with closed storage for pots, pans, records, or whatever you don’t want to see on the bottom! Pick it up at Modern Coop.
Thanks, Mike, once again, for the pics!
This gnarly wood beam and simple flat steel entertainment center is sure to withstand the heaviest record collection (or even your collection of boulders). We left a ton of texture on the wood to contrast with the slick steel vertical support structure. This hard-core, heavy-duty storage shelf isn’t easy to move, but it sure is easy to love.
Are you a cat owner that lives in an apartment with no where to hide the litter box? Well we have been there and done that, which is why we decided to build these functional cat-box-boxes (think ‘Inception’). It’s a credenza on the outside, and a functional litter box holder on the inside! It even has plenty of room for your litter and litter accessories.
Each are unique with individual graphics or a ebonized finish. The doors feature reclaimed wood strips and integrated pulls. A hand-rubbed polyurethane finish will keep them beautiful for years to come.
If you don’t own a feline friend, you can still find a use for these unique credenzas. Records? TV stand? Books? Collection of G.I. Joe’s? Your creativity is the limit.

This lovely mid-century credenza was found in the basement of a salvation army with a putrid off-green varnish covering the entire piece. We got it to the studio, stripped the varnish off, and viola! Gorgeous walnut drawer faces. We painted the rest with a subtle matte black and used a scrap piece of metal to stencil a dot matrix pattern on the drawer faces to finish it off. It was well worth the effort!

This steel cart got quite a facelift! We found this beauty sitting outside of a metal scrapyard rusting away. With a little TLC, it was transformed into this playful beverage cart/kitchen cart/storage cart thing that you see now! The moire dot pattern was stenciled on using scrap perforated metal and the top is solid maple from a derelict table. The bottom shelf and drawer are lined with clear-coated birch panels. Great multi-functional, rolling, fun piece of furniture.

This credenza was found in disrepair at a local Chicago thrift store. After we stripped of the greenish lacquer, we found the piece was solid maple, and decided to clear-coat it so no one would be confused again. The doors have a xylene transfer of a steel bridge structure and the top has similar image in varying sheens of polyurethane. Some great over sized steel casters (also found at a local steelyard) were added to finish out this industrial piece.
This credenza was featured at the Design Harvest Festival in the Living Room Realty booth.

Is it a sideboard, an occasional, a dinette, a book/media cabinet, a credenza, or the perfect pedestal for a flat screen TV? You decide. Regardless, you will get Lost in Space staring for hours at the cosmic graphics splattered on the back of the sliding glass doors. Features burnt sienna tinted walnut veneer, charcoal grey feet.

American of Martinsville refinished dresser/hutch combo. The legs on the hutch give the piece versatility, allowing the two pieces to be stacked together or placed individually. Beautiful walnut veneer was adorned with flattened images of both the coastline and mountains of Chile. The top of the hutch addresses the mountain-scape, and the lower drawer set shows the unique central coastline. The two are remarkably similar yet distinctly different, reinforcing the idea that the pieces can relate separately or in tandem. Brass handle. New sexy green crushed velvet drawer linings.

This modular shelving system literally has hundreds of combinations and uses. It has both open and closed storage, and the boxes can be flipped in either direction to create a functional room divider. All of the shelves can be moved up down and side to side. I know what you’re thinking, ‘wow that’s flexible!’.
The intricacy of the pattern on the doors in part comes from the different thicknesses of a simple, repetitive piece. It has a clean, natural finish (paste wax over Danish oil) on it’s original 1950’s walnut boards. White accents on the back of the boxes and around the door panels add a modern, fresh detail to a classic piece.
