58x20x2 cm - 3-pack shelves - White - String Furniture

The essence of Nordic design

The String System in white perfectly embodies Scandinavian design: simplicity, lightness and intelligent functionality.

Created in 1949 by Swedish designers Nisse and Kajsa Strinning, the String System has become a world-renowned icon of modular furniture. Its fine wire side panels and clean horizontal lines allow endless combinations — a perfect balance between form and purpose.

In its white finish, the String System expresses the very essence of minimalism. Its pure tone reflects light beautifully, visually enlarging the space while blending naturally with every interior palette and material.

A modular and enduring design

The strength of the String Furniture white system lies in its adaptability. Each element connects seamlessly, allowing you to design a configuration that evolves with your needs — from a simple wall shelf to a complete home library or workspace.

Technical features:

Modular structure: available in widths of 58 cm or 78 cm, and depths of 20 cm or 30 cm.

Materials: shelves in lacquered or laminated MDF, with white-coated steel side panels (wall-mounted or floor-based versions).

Assembly: the shelves attach between two ladder-shaped side panels, creating a light, stable and refined composition.

Fully compatible: all String elements are interchangeable across generations, from the 1949 originals to current designs.

Easy care: wipe with a soft damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the smooth white lacquer.

A luminous finish for calm, contemporary interiors

The white finish enhances any room by bringing clarity, serenity and light. Its neutral character makes it the perfect background for showcasing books, ceramics, and everyday objects.

In a living room, it highlights colourful or natural objects without adding visual weight.

In a home office, it fosters focus and calm thanks to its pure, uncluttered appearance.

In a kitchen or bedroom, it brightens the space and harmonises beautifully with wood, metal, or stone textures.

Whether used as a single unit or as a wall-to-wall composition, the String System white always conveys the airy, architectural aesthetic of Scandinavian design.

Why choose the String System white?

It captures the purity and elegance of Nordic minimalism.

Its modular flexibility lets you adapt your layout as your needs change.

The neutral tone complements all materials — from light oak and walnut to marble, brass or natural fabrics.

It’s a timeless choice for bright, harmonious and functional interiors.

Styling and composition tips

Combine 20 cm-deep shelves (for decorative items) and 30 cm-deep shelves (for books or storage) to vary rhythm and depth.

Match white shelves with white side panels for an invisible, seamless look, or with grey or black side panels for a more graphic contrast.

Use colourful or natural accessories — ceramics, glass, greenery — to create gentle contrast against the clean white background.

For larger walls, connect multiple modules to design a continuous library or storage composition.

Follow the manufacturer’s mounting recommendations to ensure stability, especially for wall-mounted systems.

Conclusion

The String System in white is far more than a shelving unit — it’s a Scandinavian design icon, combining purity, function and timeless beauty.

Its luminous finish enhances any space, highlighting your objects while maintaining a sense of openness and calm.

Choosing String Furniture white shelves means investing in a piece of durable, elegant, and endlessly adaptable design — a classic of Swedish modernism that remains as fresh and relevant today as it was in 1949.
