We’ve developed a modular storage system that allows you to combine individual “cubes” to create almost any type of storage furniture. You can see some of our preset arrangements here: https://ombahome.com/collections/bookshelves or build your own custom version here: https://ombahome.com/pages/custom-bookshelf-builder

We have a few basic building blocks that can be arranged to create a wide variety of storage pieces. Specifically, we have 3 types of cubes, which come in different sizes and wood species:
-Open cube (https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0276/3830/0805/files/open.png?v=1744908377)
-Cube with drawers (https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0276/3830/0805/files/drawer.png?v=1744908360)
-Cube with doors (https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0276/3830/0805/files/doors.png?v=1744908342)

These pieces are connected via hidden mortise and tenon joints (seen in one of the attached images). To avoid “double walls”, we deconstruct each cube into individual panels that we customize according to the specific configuration a customer asks for.

The result is a system which is customizable and made of solid wood, yet affordable (relative to other custom solid wood furniture).
