Need enclosed cabinet ideas

My Pastor asked if I would build a small altar for the chapel at a memory care facility and wants a enclosed base for it. Really it’s a table top with an enclosed cabinet under it. I’m having a hard time finding examples or ideas for it and everything  I’ve seen has a door or drawer so space isn’t wasted.  Anyone have links or resources for examples of enclosed cabinets? Maybe just frame and panel construction for the front and sides? Any direction is appreciated.

4 frame and panel assemblies, one as a door. Up on (4) 8/4 blocks as legs. If they want clean & simple do Shaker panels or raised panels for a more traditional look. Concealed hinges & probably a lock .  Panel for the door maybe 1/4" to 3/8" shorter so it swings clear under the top.  If it's a rectangular table you could do 2 panels on the front & back.
