Simple question here, just wondering if there is a standard / traditional height for a sideboard, or a hallway storage unit. the way a table might be 800mm high. Thanks

There are quite a few proportioning systems out there that can inform design development across a range of disciplines, e.g., architecture, interior design, furniture, product design, art, photography, even typefaces and graphic design, etc.sammy.se":1pmb5teh said:Isn't there also a golden ratio when designing furniture, for heights of bottom and top sections?
That's frequently a very practical height, Mike. It puts the top surface at about the right height for 'other' typical desk activities such as writing and drawing. I usually find desks incorporating a sliding keyboard tray for use with either a desktop or laptop computer too high really for those 'other' uses; the top surface often ends up at about 750 mm or so off the ground, so trying to write or draw means uncomfortably hitching up a shoulder.
