This is a design for  a minimalist- style bedroom dresser with one of drawer spaces enhanced to support cable box,/dvr, stereo, etc.  Now you don't have to choose between a dresser and an entertainment center.  

Constructed from plywood using pocket screw construction.  -it  can be built with a table saw, pocket screw jig and a drill.  About as easy as furniture construction can get.
I also plan to  make a movable false-drawer front for the electronics bay,   but haven't figured it out yet.
