Compact Shelving

While exploring ideas to give us extra storage without compromising on design or space, many of us turn to shelving as a solution — it’s a brilliantly effective way of drawing focus upwards and more importantly it ensures your floor space isn’t compromised. With this in mind, it’s not surprising that we've seen a rise in clever shelving designs, and here we’ve selected some of our favourites.

The Lineas Shelf by Porada is bold and sophisticated, with its striking linear detailing and built-in concealed storage drawers, this shelf can pull focus just as easily as it can blend in too.

Similarly, the Pendola Shelf by Cattelan Italia comes in three different triangular sizes and a variety of finishes to allow you to mix and match this into your space with ease.

If you’re looking for more playful styles, consider the Made Shelf by Connubia Calligaris. With melamine shelves that slot simply into a lacquered metal frame, this design creates a fluid flowing unit that seems to seamlessly integrate into wall space behind. Or the Ens Shelf by Connubia Calligaris which has a customisable, colourful design featuring storage elements that slot onto a main beam on the wall, allowing you to arrange a configuration to suit your needs. 

So for somewhere new to enjoy putting away bits and bobs, why not explore some compact shelving — and allow your space to reach new heights.
