Looking for a practical way to use unused corners? Our MDF and slatted wooden corner shelves offer a simple storage solution for living rooms, utility rooms, bathrooms and more — designed to fit neatly and work hard.
Corners are often one of the most underused areas in the home. Too small for furniture and too awkward for standard shelving, they usually end up empty or cluttered. Corner shelves are a simple way to turn that wasted space into something genuinely useful, without taking over the room.
Whether you’re styling a living room, organising a utility space, or adding storage to a hallway, corner shelves offer practical storage that still looks considered.
Why Corner Shelves Work So Well
Corner shelving makes use of space that would otherwise be left empty. Because they sit neatly into the corner, they don’t interrupt walkways or make rooms feel crowded. This makes them ideal for both small rooms and busy areas of the home.
They’re especially useful in:
-
Living rooms
-
Utility rooms
-
Bathrooms
-
Home offices
-
Hallways and landings
With the right design, corner shelves can be both functional and subtle.
Our Corner Shelf Options
We currently offer two styles of corner shelves, each suited to different spaces and uses.
1. MDF Corner Shelves
Our MDF corner shelves are a clean, simple option that works well in most interiors. They’re designed to be painted, so you can match them to your walls for a seamless look or paint them in a contrasting colour to make a feature of the corner.
Best for:
-
Living rooms
-
Bedrooms
-
Hallways
-
Painted interiors
MDF shelves are a great choice if you want storage that blends in rather than stands out.
2. Slatted Wooden Corner Shelves
Our slatted wooden corner shelves are made from solid timber and designed with airflow in mind. The slatted design makes them particularly well suited to practical spaces where ventilation matters.
They have a more natural, functional look and are ideal where you want storage that can handle everyday use.
Best for:
-
Utility rooms
-
Airing cupboards
-
Bathrooms
-
Laundry spaces
They’re strong, durable, and practical, without feeling bulky.
Where Corner Shelves Really Shine
Corner shelves aren’t just about storage, they’re about making awkward spaces work harder.
Some popular uses include:
-
Storing folded towels or baskets in a utility room
-
Displaying plants or books in a living room corner
-
Adding extra storage above worktops or sinks
-
Making use of unused corners in narrow rooms
Because they’re fixed neatly into the corner, they feel intentional rather than like an afterthought.
Choosing the Right Corner Shelf
When deciding between MDF and slatted wooden corner shelves, think about how the space is used.
-
If it’s a decorative space, MDF shelves painted to match your walls tend to look the most streamlined.
-
If it’s a working space where airflow and durability matter, slatted wooden shelves are usually the better option.
Both styles are designed to be solid, practical, and easy to live with.
Make the Most of Your Corners
Corners don’t have to be dead space. With the right shelving, they can become one of the most useful parts of a room.
Whether you’re looking for discreet painted shelves or practical wooden slatted storage, corner shelves are a simple upgrade that makes a real difference.
