About this asset

This contemporary SketchUp bookcase features a black metal frame with natural rattan cane-webbing drawer fronts and open shelving. This tall, rectangular storage unit combines a minimalist black metal structure with tactile natural rattan elements. The configuration is divided into three vertical sections, featuring a mix of open display shelves at the top and closed storage drawers at the base. The upper side sections incorporate vertical metal slats, adding visual texture and depth to the overall composition. The lower portion includes six drawers with woven rattan panels, providing a warm contrast to the matte black finish of the frame. The unit is elevated on a simple, low-profile metal plinth base.

The download is a 13.6 MB compressed archive containing the native SketchUp (.skp) model. It opens directly in SketchUp; for 3ds Max, Blender or Cinema 4D, import it through a SketchUp importer or convert it first.

In SketchUp, this model is organised into logical groups, allowing for easy selection of the frame and individual storage components. Users should ensure the model is scaled correctly against their room elevation before placement. The rattan texture is mapped to provide a realistic appearance, which can be adjusted via the materials editor for custom render settings. The file is lightweight, making it suitable for populating complex interior scenes without significantly impacting viewport performance or file size during the design development phase.

This versatile shelving unit is ideal for contemporary residential living rooms, home offices, or boutique commercial spaces. It functions as an effective display piece for books, decorative objects, and accessories while offering practical hidden storage for smaller items. Designers often pair this piece with neutral, textured interior palettes to highlight the contrast between the black metal and the natural cane.
