Tallboys

Q: How tall are standard tallboys?

There is no standard height for a tallboy. Despite the name, some are actually quite short, potentially short enough to act as a bedside table. Yet they can be tall too, ranging up to around two metres.

Q: Where should tallboys be placed in a bedroom?

Tallboys should be placed with their back against the wall. If a tallboy is short enough to act as a bedside table, it can be placed directly next to the bed. Otherwise, across from the bed or in the corner are good options. Decide based on what looks right to you.

More than just a functional storage solution, tallboys can be very trendy and come in a variety of styles and colours. If you’re on the hunt for the best tallboys on the market, there is no better place to browse than ArchiPro! All of our tallboys are sourced from trusted suppliers in Australia.

Types of tallboy

Chest

The tallboy chest is similar to a chest of drawers but taller and, generally, thinner. Some tallboy chests are still short enough to serve as bedside tables.

Corner

A corner tallboy is a tallboy designed to be situated in the corner of a room. They tend to be even more slender than regular tallboys, in order to fit neatly in the corner.

Combination

A combination tallboy will have a drawer section and a cabinet section. The top of a combination tallboy is sometimes able to serve as a dressing table.

The advantages of a high-quality tallboy

Tallboys should offer you feasible and attractive alternatives to regular sets of drawers. A high-quality tallboy dresser will offer ample storage space for clothing or other items.

For example, investing in high-quality tallboys made from natural wood is essential for several reasons. Solid timber ensures durability and longevity, outlasting furniture made from cheaper materials. With its inherent strength, a well-crafted tallboy can withstand regular use without structural compromise, saving you time and money on repairs or replacements.

Additionally, the aesthetic appeal of natural wood is unmatched. Each piece showcases unique grain patterns and textures, adding warmth and elegance to any room. Over time, solid wood develops a beautiful patina that enhances its timeless beauty. Its versatility allows it to effortlessly blend with various interior design styles.

Choosing high-quality timber tallboys is also an eco-friendly decision. By opting for responsibly sourced wood, you support sustainable forestry practices and contribute to a greener environment. Unlike synthetic materials, solid wood is biodegradable and has a smaller carbon footprint.

Great tallboys are not just storage solutions, their stylish look can enhance the room they’re situated in. One need only take note of the growing popularity of tallboys in Australia to understand how a high-quality tallboy can combine function and charm.

How to choose a tallboy that’s right for you

Choosing the perfect tallboy involves several factors to consider. Size and space are crucial; evaluate the available area in your room and select a tallboy that fits appropriately. A compact design works well for smaller spaces, while slim tallboys are ideal for narrow areas. For larger storage needs, opt for a double tallboy.

Style and colour are important considerations to ensure the tallboy complements your room's overall aesthetic. A white tallboy offers a timeless and versatile look that blends well with various decor styles. However, ensure the chosen color matches your existing furniture and color scheme.

Quality and durability are paramount. Look for well-crafted tallboys with sturdy construction, smooth drawer mechanisms, and durable materials. This guarantees long-lasting functionality and resistance to wear and tear.

Assess your storage requirements to determine the number and size of drawers needed. Consider internal organization features to keep your belongings well-arranged and easily accessible.

Practicality and functionality are essential for everyday use. Ensure the tallboy's dimensions, drawer depth, and accessibility align with your needs. A well-designed tallboy maximizes storage without occupying excessive floor space. If you're looking for another storage solution for your bedroom, you can also use a wardrobe or closet.

Is a tallboy the same as a dresser?

Typically, a dresser is similar to a large cabinet with shelves and a tallboy is more like an extra tall chest of drawers. However, with many different styles of tallboy and dresser available, the boundaries between different types of furniture can become blurry.
