Materials

Powder-Coated Steel Panels
Constructed from precision-formed steel panels finished in a durable powder coating for a smooth, uniform surface with subtle sheen. Designed to resist scratching and everyday wear while maintaining crisp edges and saturated color.

Chrome-Plated Steel Frame
The exposed tubular frame is finished in polished chrome, creating contrast against the colored panels while emphasizing the system’s structural geometry.

Design

Originally inspired by modular storage systems developed during the late modernist era, the Kubus Open Bookshelf embraces exposed structure as part of the aesthetic. The open shelving rhythm creates a lighter visual footprint than traditional casegoods, allowing the piece to function equally well in residential or workspace environments.

The balanced proportion between solid panels and open voids gives the shelf a distinctly architectural feel — functional storage that also reads as graphic composition.

Questions About The Kubus Open Bookshelf

How long until I receive my order?

The Kubus Open Bookshelf arrives approximately 6-8 weeks from the day of order.

Our products take longer to arrive than most others on the internet. But there's a good reason why. Most of our pieces are made to order and ship directly from the source. We don’t keep warehouses or carry excess inventory. This is how we cut costs and pass thousands in savings back to you. But it also means you have to wait a bit longer.

What is your return policy

The Kubus Open Bookshelf can be returned after receiving the order only if the product is damaged or unusable.

Our products are made to order. So we cannot offer returns for changes in preference. But we always do what we can to make it right.

To be returned, products need to be completely unused and still in their original packaging.

How can I track my order?

The Kubus Open Bookshelf ships within 2 weeks of order placement.

Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking details, allowing you to monitor its progress. Simply use the provided tracking information on our delivery partner’s website to stay updated on your shipment.

Judge us by our looks

Our packaging is safe, simple, and proudly no frills. We don't think it makes sense to pay for things you throw away immediately.

That's why the Kubus Open Bookshelf ships in the same protective packaging the manufacturer uses, covered in functional stickers and foreign stamps showing the journey it's been on.

We don't hide it and wear it as a badge of honor for the places our products have been and the people who made them.
