Plywood room divider

A floor-to-ceiling room divider of open birch-plywood boxes stacked in a brick bond, every other column offset by half a box, with four closed cubbies painted dusty blue scattered through it. Open from both sides and fixed to a ceiling joist, so it needs no back.

• Cherry keepsake box with walnut splines A cherry keepsake box sized for letters, photographs and a child's first shoes, its mitred corners locked with walnut splines that show as fine dark stripes. The lid is sawn from the same mitred box, so the grain runs unbroken over the joint line, and maple liners standing proud of the body seat the lid without a catch.
• Joinery oak low table A low, generous coffee table in pale white oak, built like a small timber frame: chunky square legs tenoned up into cross rails that carry the top, low stretchers that echo the rails at each end, and five slim slats beneath for books and baskets. No metal anywhere - just joinery and a matte, soap-like finish.
• Smoked oak nesting tables A pair of nesting side tables in smoked white oak, its ray-fleck grain glowing through a deep tobacco-brown stain: slim tapered legs, softly rounded tops, and the smaller one sliding right under the larger when you need the floor back.
