Here you can keep your media paraphernalia safe and sound without the hassle of tangled wiring. There is a single, large pullout drawer in the center where you can keep smaller things such as TV remotes, operating manuals, and more. The subtle classical accents used throughout the design manifest in the form of sophisticated wainscot designs on cabinets, beautifully hand-carved posts on the bottom half, and corbel style spandrels at the base.
