  • In this DIY video I made a Built-in entertainment center for our living room start to finish. Checkout how these built ins in the entertainment center transformed this living room / bonus room when paired with he board and batten accent wall.

    What do you think about painting it the same color as the walls?

    • @JohnDoe-vr4zk
      @JohnDoe-vr4zk Před 2 lety +34

      IT would look better if it was diferent colour

    • @stephaniehelstrom1982
      @stephaniehelstrom1982 Před 2 lety +20

      I like this cabinet painted the same colour as the walls, but I think it has a lot to do with the paint colour.

    • @dbonfond
      @dbonfond Před 2 lety +5

      Not a big fan as it is but I think this is due to the color chosen. Eventhough I like it on the wall, I think it doesn't match the stained plywood.

    • @supermanpedo
      @supermanpedo Před 2 lety +7

      I think if it was I couple shades darker of a green! It almost looks washed out being that same muted green as the rest of the room.. it can be a built in look by caulking all of the edges that meet the walls and finishing it similar to board and batten wall treatments.. but definitely a different color

    • @emmasmith3732
      @emmasmith3732 Před 2 lety +3

      Honestly love the green but I think having the bottom cabinets green and the shelves on top walnut would look nice.

  • @PierreBallerFR
    @PierreBallerFR Před 2 lety +292

    In my opinion, Irinia is right. All green with contrasting shelves is perfect. Always enjoy your videos from here in France Keep doing it !!

    • @MrBuildit
      @MrBuildit  Před 2 lety +5

      Glad you like them!

    • @Leticiaxox
      @Leticiaxox Před 2 lety +1

      i really like it but it would have looked better in a satin or more matte paint

  • @torysetliff
    @torysetliff Před 2 lety +151

    I’m with your wife on this one. Wrapping the room in one moody color made it feel cozy and less cavernous. Also, when your cabinets are the same color as the room, it feels more custom and purposeful. There is a whole world of Ikea hack tutorials that involve painting the flat pack furniture the same as the walls because it makes it feel more expensive.

  • @ajrayo
    @ajrayo Před 2 lety +79

    She was spot-on with the color choices. The whole idea was for the build to look like it was part of the existing room, and the contrasting walnut finish made it look like the whole room wasn't just painted with the green.

  • @JoshLeCompte
    @JoshLeCompte Před 2 lety +33

    I was with you up until the reveal lol and then once it was all up, the accent shelves really work and break up the space nicely. Great build overall though, looks fantastic!

  • @billymasoner3735
    @billymasoner3735 Před 2 lety +2

    Irina wins this one, matching the wall color gives that “it’s been here 100 years” built-in look like an old Craftsman style home. Gorgeous. And I really appreciate that you show us all the mistakes you make because it helps me think I can do this too. The only thing I think I would add is some crown molding to the top edge for a more finished look.

  • @kaysha
    @kaysha Před 11 měsíci

    She was right about the colors. But even the shelves would've made it even more convincing in the same color

  • @jacobjaramillo6889
    @jacobjaramillo6889 Před 2 lety +43

    I like the look like Irina said….one thing in my opinion I would have done different is for the top 4 cubbies above the tv, I would have had a single piece of trim along the bottom of all 4 cubbies to look like one floating shelf instead of the paint breaking up the sections….but besides that I love the whole built in

    • @mtheohar
      @mtheohar Před 2 lety +4

      Yes this is the only thing i kept looking at! Overall amazing project

    • @OtikaOtikaOtika

  • @aunnahr8833
    @aunnahr8833 Před 2 lety +1

    I love it! Probably because it's my favorite color. But she was right the stain adds a nice contrast

  • @vsingh2625

  • @ajablonska82
    @ajablonska82 Před 2 lety +1

    There is no question that whatever you build is a piece of art. You are very talented and skilled. The colours are obviously debatable because we all like different things. I personally am not a big fan of green furniture. But I have to admit this shade of green with brown looks stunning.

  • @_CarlosA
    @_CarlosA Před 2 lety

    The green color was the correct decision IMO

  • @elc7795
    @elc7795 Před 2 lety +2

    Your wife nailed the colors on this one! The only change I would recommend would be to make fillers between the wall and the shelves. It would make it look more a part of the room. Other than that, the design, build and colors are fantastic!

  • @mrgoodfind4949
    @mrgoodfind4949 Před 2 lety

    Mrs Design it is absolutely right. Let the shelves look like they are floating. That is high end.

  • @stevenschaible5903
    @stevenschaible5903 Před 2 lety +1

    Looks good just think it needs a crown at the top to finish it off

  • @sameff1390
    @sameff1390 Před 2 lety +15

    I Like the look of the green with the contrasting shelves. I think if you did a different color the wood stained shelves wouldn't have looked as good and the whole built in would have had to be just one color.
    Also, just built myself a new desk after learning a lot from your videos!

  • @dash204
    @dash204 Před 2 lety +1

    MRS.M is right all green with the contrasting shelves looks a lot better

    I think you made the right decision RE the paint colours and the stain accent. Love it!

  • @1for2and3for5
    @1for2and3for5 Před 2 lety +15

    The colour of the cabinet looks built-in when it's the same as the walls.
    I would have chosen to put the vertical pieces completely against the wall with a trim piece as a spacer to get the full built-in feel

  • @Gosa000

    I like the contrast of the shelf and the cabinets matching the wall! I want to do white built-ins in my family room and with this breakdown of costs it's a heck of a lot cheaper to diy it especially if you have the know-how and the tools!

  • @bchantharath

  • @christinaburney5935
    @christinaburney5935 Před rokem +1

    You covered your wall vents. You could have made the drawers shorter, and made cutouts at the bottom and had the air flowing into the room through the cutout with a decorative mesh or something over it. It would have added the air flow and that little something extra to the cabinet.

    good stuff! pro-tip; for the wall mounted TV in living/family rooms/lofts=couches...40 inch from floor @ center keeps it flat on the wall, no ugly tilt and minimize neck strain ...
    bedrooms a bit higher for comfort/furniture clearance as needed

    Great job, I enjoyed your video and this came out amazing. Nice that you picked out a great sized TV. Last year I built a stained plywood background for a Sony 75" for the living room. Put 3 30" gray cabinets also with matching stained plywood. I had no clue what I was doing but the results were not too bad. Thank you for sharing!

    Looks good don’t get me wrong I’ve built builtins myself and I now the time it take and the care that goes into it but builtins are considered wall to wall trim on the floors and face frames on the cabinets all have to meet the wall. You my friend just have fancy cabinets/storage

  • @stephendallasdraws2929
    @stephendallasdraws2929 Před 2 lety +5

    I like the media room you have set up! You could save 20% on plywood IMO by switching to 1/2 inch for verticle runs and drawer boxes. Just a few tweaks to the building techniques make up all the strength your might be losing, but it's negligible for this setting because of the shearing strength plywood has at 1/2 in or higher. The face frame, backing, and wall-anchoring add enough rigidity for a permanent piece like this. I built cabinets for over 12 years with my dad and can't imagine building something this heavy. My installers would have killed me haha. Reserve 3/4 for flat, finished surfaces or broad verticle surfaces like finished edges of a pantry or fridge cabinet. Although it's hard to promote affiliate links to kregg pocket hole jigs if you don't use 3/4 in all your videos haha. If the client wanted hardwood throughout, that's another story. $$$

    @Zogg1281 Před 2 lety

    I'm going with Irina on the cabinet's matching the walls with the shelves as an accent purely because you used a marking square to close the lid of the tin!!!! OK, I like it as well, but even if I didn't, using a "prissision" instrument as a hammer is really painful to watch 😭 😆👍👍👍
