Bookcases & Shelves

Organise and display your home with Decortie's collection of modern bookcases and shelving units, crafted from durable engineered wood and designed for contemporary UK homes. From tall statement pieces to compact corner units, each design blends practical storage with clean, modern lines.

Which bookcase suits your space?

The right bookcase depends on your room and what you need to store:

• Tall bookcases (150–173 cm) give the most shelving on a small footprint — ideal for books, folders and display in living rooms and home offices. See the Karmato Tall Bookcase 168.5 cm.
• Corner bookcases turn an unused corner into display space without crowding the room, like the Nati Corner Bookcase 161 cm.
• Bookcases with doors hide everyday clutter behind clean cabinet fronts — the Key 5-Door Bookcase combines open shelving with closed storage.
• Room-divider bookcases zone open-plan spaces while keeping the light flowing, such as the open-back Molly Corner Bookcase.

Choosing the right size

Measure the gap you want to fill, then check width and height separately. Our narrowest tall units are around 31-35cm wide: the Piano Corner Bookcase is 31cm wide and 159cm tall, and the Multi Bookcase is 32cm wide and 167cm tall. For a fuller wall, the Soto is 92cm wide and 173cm tall. Shorter units around 89cm tall, such as the Molly No.1, fit under a window or beside a desk. Wall-mounted shelves like the Tibet span 119cm without taking floor space. Every Decortie bookcase is made from durable engineered wood and arrives flat-packed with clear, step-by-step assembly instructions.
