Nikki Tibbles is a famous British florist whose bold, crammed, often crazy-making 1890 five-story home has been featured on numerous design venues (and is available to rent as a location). Amidst all the STUFF and doneness, we found one idea we love: Stacked irregular boxes painted a bold yellow to make a wall of shelving.

It is a sleek, chic play on wooden crate shelving, with the irregular sizes of the boxes giving an asymmetrical puzzle-box feel, and the paint a serious hit of color. The shelving gets pretty dimensional and somewhat surprising due to differing depths of the crates…

We’re thinking that a wall unit could be created out of boxes AND smaller storage units, as though you were combining Ikea units in a random-seeming way…
