Great design and great for keeping my collection of interior design samples organized – the Lekman boxes fit the shelves perfectly – and until I get the time to design built-in storage this is a great solution.

We have this in our "home office". Binders, file boxes, photo albums and storage containers from Ikea all fit in it so perfectly. what a great way to keep our lives organized. Added the Ikea magazine rack on the side of it for additional easy to grab files.

I love the simplicity of these bookcases. They have a substantial look.
There is also a rectangular version that can be used upright or along its length.

The price is very reasonable too.

Evangelista's recommendation

I have used these so many times! They look way more expensive than you'd think in person, and you can add casters (wheels) to the bottom to make them really practical and moveable. Plus that keeps you from damaging the floors.

I only suggest the brown/black, because the white ones look much cheaper and get beat up really fast. When you get this, please put it together with wood glue (in every single hole and on every joining surface!) and your bookcase will last twice as long.

Check out my recommendation on the boxes and drawers and magazine files that work with this too!
