Contemporary Charcoal Metal and Glass Shelving Unit

This contemporary 3ds Max shelving unit features a charcoal metal frame and glass shelves, styled with various decorative objects. This freestanding shelving unit comprises two adjacent bays, each featuring four levels of shelving. The structure is defined by slim, dark charcoal metal uprights and horizontal supports, providing a clean, industrial-inspired aesthetic. The horizontal surfaces are finished in clear glass, maintaining an airy, light profile despite the generous storage capacity. The unit comes fully dressed with a curated selection of decorative items, including framed artwork, potted greenery, and various ceramic vessels in neutral tones. Its proportions are balanced and symmetrical, making it a versatile piece for displaying personal collections or professional design references.

The download is a 87.4 MB compressed archive containing the native 3ds Max (.max) model, set up with Corona materials. Open it in 3ds Max with Corona installed; for other programs, export to FBX or OBJ from 3ds Max first.

Within 3ds Max, this model is organised into logical layers, allowing for the easy separation of the shelving frame from the decorative accessories. The glass surfaces utilise standard material slots, which can be adjusted for transparency and reflection to suit your specific lighting environment. Scale the unit globally to fit your architectural floor plan, and use the instance feature to repeat the shelving across larger wall elevations if required. Ensure the pivot point is at the base for accurate placement on floor planes.
