01 / A closer look
About this piece
This is a four-tier open bookshelf built around a matte black steel frame with X-shaped cross braces between every tier and solid wood shelves in a distressed brown finish. The rustic industrial combination of warm wood and angular black metal fits naturally in living rooms, home offices, bedrooms, and entryways. Four open shelves give you plenty of room to display books, plants, and decor without the closed-back look of a traditional bookcase.
The X-shaped cross braces between each tier are both a structural feature and the bookshelf's most recognizable design element. They add geometric interest to the silhouette and keep the frame rigid without requiring a solid back panel. Assembly takes approximately 20 minutes with the included tools and instructions. Adjustable leg levelers let you stabilize the unit on uneven floors, and an anti-tip kit is included so you can secure it to the wall.

Style

- The distressed matte finish on the shelf boards adds textural warmth and reads well against both dark and neutral wall colors, as seen in two different lifestyle settings.
- The X-brace detailing between each tier is a defining visual element that adds geometric interest to an otherwise simple rectangular silhouette.
Rooms
- Works best in living rooms, home offices, bedrooms, and entryways.
- The lifestyle images show the unit performing well against both dark moody walls and bright, naturally lit rooms, confirming visual flexibility across room tones.
Feeling
- Warm
