Gallery Cubby Wall Shelf

A boxed wall unit with two tall cubbies at either end, a lower open ledge between them and a full-width shelf running underneath — four bays that frame whatever you put in them like a display case. The tall ends were sized for vases and standing frames, the dipped centre for a single feature piece, and the long base for books or a run of smaller objects. It is the shelf to choose when the things on it matter more than the shelf itself, and the oak finish holds its own against both pale and deep wall colours.

• Four bays — two tall cubbies, a centre ledge and a full base
• Boxed frame presents objects like a display case
• Symmetrical form that anchors a sofa or bed wall
