Since the Expedit has to back panel, if you place it against a colored wall then that beautiful shade will also become part of the furniture’s design.
The shelving unit is perfect for corners. Long and narrow, it occupies little floor space and offers a lot of storage and display space for books, vases, etc.
If you’re not a fan of tall shelving units with compartments you can’t reach, then try a horizontal approach. Get two of these bookcases and place them side by side. You’ll get a highly practical wall unit.
Feel free to play with shapes and sizes. Create your own version of the ideal bookcase. The versatile Expedit shelves are perfect for such experiments.
You’ve seen this shelving unit placed vertically in a corner and it was very practical but that’s not the only possible use for it. Place it horizontally and create a console table for the living room or dining area.
The cubbies are perfect for storing files ad documents, which makes the bookcase excellent for home offices.

Smaller in size but equally versatile, if not even more, this shelf unit may be just right for the kids’ room. Use several of them to make a room divider with built-in storage.
