Shelves that belong to the room

Built-in shelving with dark faces and natural wood edges. Designed for the space, not squeezed into it.

From concept to the room

This built-in project combines shelves of different heights around the room. The photograph shows the finished arrangement in place.

Leave the edges visible

After applying the edge banding, I decided to keep the wood visible as a contrast to the dark surfaces. It became part of the final look rather than something to cover.
