Fort Standard’s Strata is a core collection for the brand, stretching its legs from case pieces to shelving and even tables. Modular by design, Strata’s storage and shelving units look to find harmony somewhere between beauty and utility, according to founder and designer Gregory Buntain. These are high-quality pieces that you’ll want to live among, with timeless designs meant to go the distance of a lifetime and beyond. Like all of Fort Standard’s products, Strata’s storage and shelving are made-to-order by a team at their facility in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

Buntain says they always look forward to collaborating with clients on bespoke, one-of-a-kind pieces that are perfectly suited to their custom space and storage needs. The best way to explore the possibilities for a personalized solution is through the interactive 3D model on each of Fort Standard’s product pages; just be sure to click the “visualize” button when experimenting with the storage options. When viewing the 3D model on mobile, there’s also an augmented reality feature, allowing users to project the designs directly into their spaces.
