Combined shoe rack and console table
The A Line Shoe Rack is a small harmoniously designed combined shoe rack and console table that helps make the best use of the narrow space found in hallways, utility rooms or functional entrance halls. It is made of sustainable sourced oak of the highest quality and its contours are rounded carefully in line with artisan craft tradition.
The large top shelf above the rack serves as a console table. Each shelf can accommodate one pair of shoes and four pairs of shoes in total. We recommend mounting the shoe rack to the wall with the metal brackets included. The shoe rack can however lean against the wall without mounting.
A Natural Material
The variations of oak
Wood is a natural material, and its appearance is strongly influenced by how the timber is cut from the log. Different cutting methods reveal different parts of the tree’s structure, naturally creating variations in grain pattern, texture and colour. For example, plank-cut oak often shows wider and more vivid grain patterns, while quarter-cut or rift-cut oak creates a calmer and more linear appearance.
These variations are a natural and expected characteristic of solid wood. They are not defects or inconsistencies, but a direct result of the tree’s natural growth and the way the material is processed.
The examples shown here illustrate how differences in cut, structure and surface treatment can influence the final appearance of the wood. At Form & Refine, we embrace these differences as part of the material’s authentic character.
”We wanted to design a space-saving piece of furniture for the hallway that could hold shoes and form a small console table. The piece has been built intentionally relatively high to facilitate its fullest expression and create a visible space between the shoes”
