Stacked Storage System by Muuto: A Sculptural Statement in Shelving

The Stacked Storage System Configuration 3 by Julien De Smedt for Muuto is a confident composition of form and function. Playing with scale, shape and rhythm, this sculptural piece reinterprets the idea of the bookshelf—bringing a uniquely architectural presence into the living space. Its staggered silhouette creates both a practical storage solution and a striking visual anchor, crafted in PU lacquered MDF or oak-veneered fibreboard and supported by a clean powder-coated steel base.

A bookshelf reimagined with bold form and thoughtful detailing

This configuration pushes beyond traditional bookshelf structure to create something character-rich and unexpected. Each modular unit feels intentional and design-aware, allowing for open display or subtle compartmentalisation. The material palette—lacquered or oak veneer—brings warmth and texture, while the open format invites interaction with objects, books, or sculptural elements. With its considered proportions (H148 x W262 x D35 cm), it’s compact yet commanding.

Design-led storage for homes with personality

Whether placed in a living space, studio or creative office, the Stacked Storage System Configuration 3 adapts effortlessly—lending a curated, layered feel. Its playful shape makes it ideal for those who favour form with flexibility. Perfect as a wooden bookshelf, display system or artful divider, this piece offers utility without uniformity. Muuto’s design language comes through clearly: modularity meets modern expression.
