I have recently completed a buffet and hutch for my wife and now want to make a corner unit to match. I have a plan similar enough to modify so it will have the same details and construction. The question I have is, is there a reason the corner buffet is lower than the regular buffet? I want to make them the same but before I do I would like to know if it is common and/or traditional to have the corner buffet lower. I believe it is lower only due to the fact that there is no drawer in it. Other than that I know of no reason for its shorter stature.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
