Objects Of Design #321: Set Of Six Stacking Shelves

stack 'em up
stack ’em up

Six cubes of varying sizes that you can stack up in any way you please. They’re freestanding and while the site says they don’t need to be attached to the wall, it might be worth considering it if there are small children or pets about. I speak from bitter experience as the other day I caught my youngest climbing up the bookshelves in a quest to reach something he had hurled up there previously. Fortunately the shelves in question are built in but there was a brief moment of panic, a small not-so-supressed-scream if you will.

Anway, fixed or not, this is a great idea. You could arrange them long and low along a wall, and then sit on the top adding a cushion if you want to be really fancy. You can pile ’em high. Or  fix them to the walls in a random pattern with books, CDs, toys, or anything else you fancy, arranged therein.
