When it comes to transforming your living space, integrating a storage solution that not only optimises space but also seamlessly blends your interior design is crucial. We put this aesthetics/functionality battle at the forefront of what we do, creating modular storage systems that fit perfectly into your home.
Shelving is a significant investment, and with a plethora of options available, selecting the ideal shelving for your designated space can be overwhelming. In this blog, to help you learn more about our system, we delve into our most frequently asked questions.
What makes Shelved unique?
Shelved is more than just a modular system; it's a distinctive solution that defies comparison with any other product on the market. Crafted from high-quality materials and featuring an ingeniously engineered click-together connection system, our modular design opens up a world of possibilities with endless configurations and designs.
However, what truly distinguishes Shelved is our recognition of the dynamic nature of your lifestyle—whether you're moving into a new home, expanding your family, or growing a vinyl collection. We've created modular shelving systems that seamlessly adapt to these changes, allowing you to effortlessly modify setups as needed. Embracing the ethos of "buy well, buy once," we ensure a shelving system that stands the test of time.
At the heart of our innovation lies our product configurator technology, empowering you with unparalleled flexibility and autonomy in your design choices. Say goodbye to the days of wrestling with oversized, cumbersome units; the Shelved system seamlessly integrates into homes and lifestyles, embodying a perfect blend of form and function.
How Does the Configurator Work?
The bespoke service we offer revolves around our online product configurator, an advanced digital tool that enables you to design your own creation. By selecting modules and arranging them in your desired design, you can create a unit that suits your unique needs. The system calculates the exact number of parts needed for the design, generates a list of components, and automatically updates the price throughout the design process.
It's important to note that while the design is customizable, the actual size of the parts cannot be changed. Shelved's system is based on a 40cm grid, ensuring uniformity and precision. All systems are made using jigs and assemblies perfectly sized to fit the products as they are.
Despite the configurator's user-friendly design for seamless navigation, if you prefer not to dive into the tool yourself, we are more than happy to lend a helping hand. Simply provide us with the dimensions of your space, offer a quick sketch, or articulate your requirements, and we'll expertly craft the design for you. Should any adjustments be necessary, our intimate familiarity with the system allows us to modify designs within seconds, ensuring your complete satisfaction!
Where Are Shelved Products Made?
We take great pride in being active members of the Made in Britain initiative. Every product we sell is crafted on-site, with a focus on utilising materials sourced as locally as possible. Our state-of-the-art Kirkbymoorside factory, situated approximately 40 minutes north of York, is where we meticulously manufacture our shelving systems.
This commitment to UK production resonates with our unwavering dedication to both quality and sustainability. By keeping our manufacturing processes close to home (just next door), we not only uphold high standards but also contribute to the resilience and eco-friendliness of our operations.
What do you mean by "Buy Well, Buy Once"?
From the outset, our Creative Director, Jonathan Clark, has championed the philosophy of "buy well, buy once." This principle underscores the significance of considering Shelved's products as a lasting investment rather than a disposable purchase. Our shelving system, meticulously crafted for homes and not landfills, embodies this philosophy by prioritising adaptability.
Designed to be reconfigured, redesigned, and repurposed throughout your lifetime without compromising structural integrity, Shelved products epitomise the essence of "buy well, buy once." This resonates with our vision of creating enduring and versatile shelving solutions that stand the test of time. Choosing Shelved means making a conscious choice for quality, longevity, and a sustainable approach to home organisation.
To conclude, mastering modular furniture is not just about optimising space; it's about integrating functionality and aesthetics into your living space. What sets Shelved apart is our recognition of the dynamic nature of lifestyles. Shelved products are crafted with a focus on quality and sustainability. We encourage the "Buy Well, Buy Once" and this is reflected in everything we do, including the design's reconfigurability, high quality materials, and manufacturing processes. Finally, the product configurator technology empowers users with unparalleled flexibility, making the design process user-friendly and customisable.
