Price History
Description
Sculptural and modular, Laos is a bookcase unit that lends itself to numerous purposes. In a linear configuration along a wall, multiple bookcases together form wall coverage. Placed in the centre of a room, they act as a divider between spaces, allowing light to pass through. Positioned in a corner, they create an intimate, more cosy space. The vertical metal elements break up the linearity of the walnut shelves. A signature AMPM design.

Our Stylist Says
I love this ladder-style bookcase because of its versatile design and warm walnut veneer finish, which adds a touch of sophistication to any room. It works particularly well in contemporary or minimalist interiors, where its open shelving can be styled with books, plants, and decorative accessories to create a personalised vignette. Practical styling tips include grouping similar items together for a cohesive look, incorporating a mix of vertical and horizontal arrangements, and leaving some space for airflow and visual relief. As a space divider, it’s ideal for open-plan living areas, subtly defining zones without creating a closed-off feel. Its slender profile makes it both functional and unobtrusive, perfect for making the most of limited space while adding visual interest.
