Crossframe Wall Shelf

Two vertical posts and two long shelves cross over each other to form an open grid, with the ends left to run past the joints instead of stopping flush. That overrun is what gives the piece its shape, and it also hands you four small landing spots at the edges for lighter objects. The centre bays are the working part — deep enough for a row of books, a frame or a small plant — and the walnut finish keeps it quiet enough for a bedroom or study wall.

• Open crossed grid — two uprights, two full-length shelves
• Overrun ends give extra display spots at the edges
• Square, symmetrical form that hangs well on its own
• Wall-mounted with no floor footprint
