Storage that looks the part and works harder
Good storage doesn't have to disappear into the background. A black powder-coated steel frame holds two open display shelves on top and three fabric drawers below, all finished in rustic brown that suits industrial, Scandi, and eclectic interiors. The drawers pull out on simple fabric runners and can be removed entirely for a different configuration. MDF shelf panels sit firmly within the steel frame, and adjustable feet let you level the unit on uneven floors. It works well in a living room as a display and storage piece, or in a home office to keep papers, cables, and everyday clutter contained without the noise of hard-close drawers.
- Steel Frame Construction: Powder-coated black steel provides the structural support, with MDF shelves sitting within the frame rather than carrying their own load.
- Three Fabric Drawers: Removable without tools and quiet to open and close — no slamming, no metal-on-metal contact.
- Two Open Display Shelves: Positioned above the drawers for books, plants, and decorative items that are meant to be on show.
- Rustic Brown Finish: Wood-effect facades on both shelves and drawer fronts work with industrial, Scandi, and eclectic interiors.
- Adjustable Levelling Feet: Level the unit on uneven floors without shims — a genuinely useful feature in older properties.
Open shelves up top, quiet drawers below
This industrial-style storage unit combines two open display shelves with three fabric drawers on a powder-coated steel frame. The rustic brown MDF shelf surfaces and drawer facades contrast with the matte black frame — a combination that works with industrial, Scandi, and eclectic interiors equally well. The drawers are fabric-bodied with rustic wood-effect fronts and black bar handles, and they can be pulled out and removed entirely without tools.
Built for everyday use
Adjustable feet at the base allow you to level the unit on slightly uneven floors, which prevents rocking without needing shims. The steel frame provides the structural load-bearing — the MDF shelves sit within it rather than carrying their own weight. This makes the unit suitable for displaying books, small plants, and decorative items on the shelves whilst storing lighter everyday items in the drawers below.
Where it works best
Living rooms, home offices, and hallways are the natural fit. At this height it reads more as a display unit than a chest of drawers — the open shelves invite things that are meant to be seen, whilst the drawers handle what isn't.
