The Kabino cabinet by Simon Legald for Normann Copenhagen comes in white or grey with a natural ash wood frame.

The perforations mean it can be used as a TV cabinet because devices hidden inside can still be operated with a remote control when the doors are closed.

"I like to work in the cross field between craftsmanship and industry," says Legald. "When you buy a modern sideboard, it is often designed with pure craftsmanship or total industry in mind."

"With Kabino I have explored manufacturing methods and various combinations of material in order for Kabino to have a little of both."

Earlier this year Norman Copenhagen launched a table-top mirror with a dish in the base to hold small items.

Colourful wall-mounted shelves and a collection of cabinets carved with geometric patterns are the most recent stories we've featured about storage.

Here's some more information from the brand:

Kabino is a simple and versatile sideboard with an exclusive look designed by Simon Legald. One of the sideboard's two sliding doors has perforated holes, giving it a visual elegance. The ash frame softens the feel and adds warmth. Kabino is a useful piece of furniture for almost anywhere in the home.

Designer Simon Legald often adds his personal touch to his designs through well thought out details. He has worked with the details of the doors on Kabino breaking up the otherwise uniform surface and creating a more dynamic design. This can for example be seen in the handles, which have been deliberately staggered and made into an integral part of the doors.

Kabino is available with white or grey doors and is ideal as a sideboard in the living room, dining room, hallway or bedroom. Kabino is also suitable to be used as a TV cabinet due to the built-in cable outlet and the perforated holes, which make it possible to use a remote control even when the doors are closed.

Originally designed for SCP in 2000 but discontinued a few years later, Marriott's extendable shelves have been reissued by Very Good & Proper.

The folded steel shelves are mounted on stainless steel hoops attached to oak brackets, as either three- or five-hoop configurations.

Colour options include grey white, anthracite grey, sulfur yellow, light green and black red, plus others are available for special orders.

To celebrate the re-issue, the products can be purchased from the brand's online shop at a 10% discount for 2 weeks, using the code CDW2013 at the checkout.

The shelves were on show at Clerkenwell Design Week, which concluded on Thursday.

Very Good & Proper was formed to produce the furniture for restaurant chain Canteen and also salvaged London Underground tiles for the interior of its Covent Garden branch.

Recently we've featured storage systems held together with plastic clips and a shelving unit that concertinas flat.

Called Toshi, which means 'city' in Japanese, the cabinets by Luca Nichetto for Casamania have geometric grooves in their outer surfaces.

"Toshi is a family of cabinets relating to the mosaic decorations that can be found in some buildings in Tokyo" explains the designer.

Made from milled and lacquered MDF, the cabinets come in a variety of shapes, heights and colours, and can be combined in numerous configurations.

Smaller containers in contrasting colours are also available, designed to compliment the family of sideboards.

The cabinets are mounted on either a low, recessed base or metal square-section legs that raise the cupboards further away from the floor.

Luca Nichetto recenltly teamed up with Japanese studio Nendo to create a range of products including a knitted room-divider and a scaly carpet, which were presented in Milan last month.

Other designs we've recently featured by Luca Nichetto include a lamp called Stewie that is the height, size and luminosity of a TV and a lounge chair with a folding backrest.

Called Fold, the piece for Japanese producer Conde House is made of interlocking wooden boards and has a zig-zag footprint so books can be slotted into recesses facing diagonally outwards in two directions.

Apertures in the back of shelves in one orientation mean they can be accessed from the back as well.

"Thanks to the superior craftsmanship of Conde House, a wood furniture manufacturer in Asahikawa in northern Japan, the joints appear seamless, as though single boards have been bent and interwoven like paper chains or a woven textile," says Nendo. "It's virtually impossible to know, looking at the shelves, how the parts are connected."

The studio's earlier Splinter collection, which looks like the components have been gently peeled away will be on show at Spazio Pontaccio, Via Pontaccio 18, Milan next week. See all our Milan 2013 previews.

Yesterday we reported on Nendo's completed refit for the womenswear floor of Milan's famous La Rinascente department store. See all our stories about design by Nendo.

Designers Kyuhyung Cho and Hironori Tsukue have created tables and chairs that clip together to form an assortment of shelving units.

Benches, stacks of shelves or huge storage systems can be created using combinations of upright and flipped-over items in the Oneness collection by Cho and Tsukue.

The simple pieces are attached by inserting black plastic fasteners into holes at each corner.

The lower half of the seats are the same as the tables, with legs that taper from the joints.

Finnish birch plywood pieces can be left untreated or stained a darker colour.

Chairs stacked upside down reveal a hidden slot in the back for storing books and other small objects. Photography is by Stephanie Wiegner.

Other stackable furniture on Dezeen include a piled-up child's chair and heaped shelves that can be skewed or straight. See all our stories about storage design »
