Shelving/Storage

easy storage

This is a pretty cool shelving system. Once the back panel has been installed, the shelves essentially “hook” in and can be removed easily for transport. Why would you need to transport, you may ask? I can see this being a pretty great system for an inbox. It’s up and out of the way when you’re not using it, and when it’s time to tackle it (say, once a week) then you just pop it out and start working.

Also, can be used to provide support for electronic devices as cables are concealed inside the back panel.

Back panel is available in either white or aluminum with your choice of three shelving colors.

A lot of style for a small price…

Here’s a great, relatively inexpensive way to mount a flat panel TV and all the accoutrements (tivo, dvd player) without having to hassle with all the wiring. You attach this storage unit to the wall and paint it or wallpaper over it to make it blend in with the rest of your decor.

how does your shelving grow?

I love this shelving. Conceivably, you could use it all over a room and not need any other storage. The shelving would unite all the disparate items into one theme, thereby reducing the visual clutter.

Cubitec Shelving

Hmm, what’s that? Storage on a shoestring budget? Well, you could go the cement block route, as there’s invariably that time in one’s life, or you could spring for this particular shelving system. It looks pretty nice for the price, and you’d be able to buy a bunch without hurting your wallet (or maybe it would hurt a little, but not a whole lot).

“Each kit contains 18 panels to create six attached cubes. Two cubes can be doubled in depth, using the remaining parts to accommodate larger items. The cubes can be attached vertically or horizontally with the included plastic hardware, and easily anchor to the wall with common fasteners (not included) for configurations that exceed heights of three cubes. Made of hollow injection-molded polypropylene, a corrugated core allows the shelving components to be superbly strong and lightweight. Each shelf is able to hold 55 lbs. The Cubitec shelves to be equally at home in playful or sophisticated environments, and even includes a clear option for subdued retail or gallery display.”

Available in Blue, Orange, Red, or Transparent White

Dimensions per cube:
H 18.25″ W 18.25″ D 10″

Drip Shelf & Puddle Table

These two pieces are quite exceptional, and for that reason only am I neglecting to provide the price. You might have heard of Susan Bradley’s Outdoor Wallpaper (if you haven’t seen it, it’s worth a look), we posted it long ago, and recently she’s expanded her collection. These two pieces are customizable in color and size; please contact Ms. Bradley for pricing.

“Both Drip shelf and Puddle table are created from powder-coated steel in a range of colours – ‘Blood’, ‘Oil’ and ‘Milk’ (gloss red, gloss black, and gloss white respectively).”

mshelving: Media Console with Walnut doors

I just found a great company called “loadbearing” which makes all kinds of great tables, storage, etc. What’s cool about the company is that each piece they make can be customized by you, the consumer. They have a flash interface in which you can drag and drop different color styles or wood types and the price updates accordingly.

“At 81″ wide, 20″ high, and 16.8″ deep, this sturdy unit is the perfect size to support your TV, peripherals and stereo, and store your DVDs as well, hiding the embarrassing ones behind nice closed doors.”

Chest of Drawers

This is genius. The “Chest of Drawers” consists of used drawers with a new maple compartment built to house each one, which is then cobbled together to form one conglomeration of storage. I love this because it’s a great way to utilize some older pieces that have been tossed asunder, and that it’s so visually impressive.

Thanks, B.A., for the link to matter matters!

cube cutout media cabinet

If you don’t want your TV to be the focal point in your livingroom, this is a nice subdued way to keep it out and hide all the electronics that go with it. Now that flat screens are becoming cheaper I bet this will become more of a trend.
