Some trends make sense.
That’s how we feel about cube storage. Cubes are 100 percent efficient when it comes to filling a space. They’re simple, elegant, and practical. Side by side, stacked, tucked away—cubes form a perfect fit, and they look good doing it.
“I was looking for a small but ample storage solution for my small bedroom. This ticks all the boxes. Very easy-to-understand instructions and incredibly easy to put together.”

If you’re looking to optimize your living space, organize your possessions, and add some modern style to your storage methods, cubes are a fantastic option.
At Laura James, we’re all about interior furniture that’s fabulous and functional. So, we absolutely love cubes.
In this quick guide, let’s have a look at your modular cube storage options. We’ll start small with single models and work our way up to full-sized nine-cube bookcases.
Cara Fabric Cube Storage Box - Small - Pink
Starting our list off with the most basic option, here’s the ultimate unit of storage efficiency: a single cube.
This simple item makes an amazing difference towards achieving your tidy home goals. Stash away the kids’ toys, books, or whatever bits and bobs don’t have their own designated space.
Single Cara storage cubes are designed to fit into our Cara storage cube units. They’ll also fit into any similarly-sized bookshelf. Thanks to the convenient handle, the cubes work equally well as drawers or as stand-alone storage containers.
You can mix and match Cara cubes with other items in this guide. Always check the dimensions of both items before planning a cube/shelf combination.
Our products come in two sizes. Here are the specifications for large and small Cara cubes:
| Cara Fabric Cube Storage Box: Dimensions | ||
| Dimension | Size: Large | Size: Small |
| Height | 27.5 cm | 24 cm |
| Width | 27.5 cm | 27 cm |
| Depth | 27.5 cm | 21 cm |
| Product Weight | 8.2 kg | 6.2 kg |
| Maximum Weight Capacity | 30 kg | 25 kg |
2 Tier Storage Unit / White Bookcase
The two-tier Cara bookcase moves us from “box” to “furniture” while keeping things small. It’s great for rooms that need some organizing but have limited space.
These small but dynamic modular storage units are excellent as a desk substitute for paperwork, as a nightstand or as a wardrobe storage option in a child’s bedroom.
Dimensions for this bookcase measure 54 cm high by 30 cm wide by 23.5 cm deep.
4 Cube White Bookcase Wooden Display Unit
Shelving Storage Bookshelf Shelves (No Basket)
Four cubes combine to form a compact, perfectly efficient set of shelves.
This simple, stylish piece packs plenty of storage space but is small enough to fit into tight spots between other pieces of furniture. Use the four cubes for books, photos, or decorations.
Interior design pro tip: for a symmetrical, patterned look, place similar items in diagonal squares, e.g. books in the lower left and upper right and photos in the upper left and lower right cubes.
This four cube bookcase measures 61 cm high by 61 cm wide by 30 cm deep.
4 Tier Storage Unit / White Bookcase
Here’s one that slides neatly into a thin, vertical space, maximizing storage capacity.
With four drawers, there’s plenty of space to keep things tucked away. The elegant simplicity of stacked cubes makes this product sleek, stylish and highly practical.
Use this piece wherever the vertical orientation forms a perfect fit: for living room storage, as an office filing cabinet or as extra dresser drawers in a bedroom wardrobe.
This four-tier storage unit measures 106 cm high by 30 cm wide by 23.5 cm deep.
6 Cube Bookcase Ladder Storage Unit - White With Grey Boxes
This ladder-style bookcase features six Cara cube compartments that form horizontally descending steps.
Choose from three storage styles:
The nifty design makes for a stylish display. Or, take advantage of the efficient shape—slide the entire shelf under a staircase to maximize all that untapped storage space.
The ladder storage unit’s dimensions are 91 cm high by 91 cm wide by 30 cm deep.
8 Cube Storage Unit In White & 4 Black Handled Box Drawers
The eight cube storage unit in white with black drawers pairs well with the colour and style of any living room furniture set.
Arrange the drawers as you like to maximize storage space. Display some items and keep others tucked away in the cube drawers.
This item is large enough to provide ample storage room but still fits into lots of spaces thanks to the 2x4 vertical orientation.
The eight cube storage unit measures 121 cm high by 61 cm wide by 30 cm deep.
9 Cube Storage Unit / White Bookcase
The largest item in this guide is the nine cube storage unit/bookcase.
With three rows of three cubes and four fabric storage boxes, this piece provides ample storage space.
Broad and tall, but not too deep, place the bookcase against a living room wall. You’ll gain lots of storage space while only losing a thin sliver of usable living space.
The nine cube storage unit measures 91 cm high by 91 cm wide by 30 cm deep.
6 Cube Bookcase Ladder Storage Unit - White With Pink Boxes
