The Risom Shelves was originally designed by Jens Risom and has been recently reissued by Stellar Works. The distinctive mid-century style of the freestanding shelving unit, with its focus on simplicity and functionality, marks it out as a true modern classic. This compact bookcase combines 4 open shelves with two drawer compartments, the latter featuring cut-out drawer fronts, which gives the bookcase a sense of lightness.

The Risom Shelves is a timeless classic which works well in living rooms or studies at home and in commercial spaces such as offices, lobbies, receptions and other communal lounging areas.
