I do like the design. Quite a lot. It's modern and sophisticated. I really like the subtle detail of the base top being inset to create a reveal right under the sunmica top. I assume the width and length of the sunmica top is exactly the same as the base, it seems that way from the drawing. I like that too, it makes the reveal more purposeful. The short sides are best left plain as i think you planned. You don't show the short side so I'll assume the base connects at the top and bottom, and the field open. I like the antique polished gold for the base. I like it in concept, I don't know the room it will go in. You're very on track, so I'm sure that is the right finish for your space. For the top carving, again I like the deep brown polish. I think it adds more to the piece by having another finish. I'm curious about the overall height. What is it? Also, the table is large. Not huge, but large. I don't think you need to make it smaller, I just want to bring this to your attention so you make sure it will fit in your space properly. Finally, the mirror. Are you using a plain mirror? Smoked glass mirror or a mirror with a slight antiquing would be great.

Its nice , love it , i am sure there is a cost involved in the making. Its elegant and simple , love it

Fantastic....I did the same with a big dark cabinet....painted it a cottage green and now get soooo many compliments.

This is french wall paneling and in between there is design. 1. This type of paneling is very much in nowadays and will never go back in old fashion 2. The design of wallpaper or painting whatsoever it is has to be chosen carefully 3. Instead of filling those panels ..you may keep it blank with the rest of wall color. Choose paint color which goes with the rest of the decor
