Shelving and storage systems can be frustrating to assemble and usually require a fair bit of time to put together (correctly), especially the flat-pack variety from Ikea. This clever design, simply called Jigsaw Storage, aims to make this process a lot easier thanks to its jigsaw puzzle shaped modules, which piece together in a snap.

Jigsaw Storage was created by designer Tom Seymour and offers up a contemporary storage solution that is easily assembled without the need for screws, nails, glue and dowels or even any tools at all for that matter. The modules can be rearranged without hassle also (depending on which shapes you have) making it a versatile piece of furniture that can transform to meet your changing storage requirements.

It’s a fun piece that certainly breaks the mold of traditional shelving unit design. I don’t know how practical it would be to actually store things in though, with the connectors creating either bumps or gaps on the inside of each module. Maybe that would spur some creative positioning of books and other objects.

The Jigsaw Storage unit is not available to purchase just yet, but the designer is looking for a manufacturer – so keep an eye out.
