Discover how to make modern interlocking shelves.

- Tim Dekker

I am what you in Swedish would call a "prylkille". If one would directly translate the word it would be stuff guy, meaning that I like collecting lots of different things. To display some of my stuff, my mom and I made a big Massironi shelf a while back. However, this one is now full, which is why I decided to make another shelf.

I wanted the shelf to stand out and be able to store different things, which is why I designed the shelf in this particular way. Since I like symmetry, the shelf consists of two parts, out of which the second part of the shelf is shifted by 25 percentage.

In this article, I will walk you through my process of making this particular shelf, as well as providing you with the necessary information tools to redesign and make your own shelf.

What you will need
These are the following materials and tools that I used for creating the shelf:

Step-by-step guide

Step 1: My design
You will see the drawings for the design that I created. If you want to use this design, either print it or use the template to draw these onto the planks.

Step 2: Your design?
Do you want a bigger shelf? Maybe you want to shift it more than 25% as I did? If that is the case get your paper and pen or a CAD software and get designing.
