This highly functional Danish shelving system in teak was designed in the 1960s by Kai Kristiansen, an icon of Danish design, for the renowned furniture manufacturer Feldballes Møbelfabrik.

Crafted to be both aesthetically pleasing and practical, this wall unit is made from warm-hued teak wood, showcasing a beautiful wood grain pattern both inside and outside the cabinets. The use of high-quality teak wood and veneer ensures the piece’s durability and longevity. Attention to detail is evident in the sculpted side panels of the shelves and the precise carpentry joints, highlighting the artistry of Danish craftsmanship. These elements, made from solid teak, also provide additional structural reinforcement.

The inclusion of a compact desk with drawers makes this wall unit an excellent alternative for creating a discreet and aesthetically pleasing home office space in a living room or bedroom. Additionally, the drop-front cabinet, thanks to its thoughtful design, allows for organized storage of documents and office accessories. A lamp, hidden beneath one of the shelves, is a practical addition that allows the desk space to be fully utilized. This combination of components offers a versatile mix of display and storage options, making it ideal for any space where aesthetics and organization are crucial.
