Brandon Clifford and Wes McGee of Matter Design have designed the PlyShelf, a wall shelf that is made from laminated plywood and created using 3-D models and CNC-milled parts.

The designer’s description
The Ply Shelves are an apparently simple design, which is more complicated under the surface. Resembling the conventional wall mounted bracket shelf system, this design morphs these separate entities into a singular, yet variable thickness shelf. The ‘brackets’ are spaced at sixteen inches on center in order to align with wall studs. Between these brackets, a digitally relaxed surface is generated in response to structural calculation.
Constructed of laminated plywood sourced from managed forests, these shelves are created using 3-D models and CNC-milled parts with low-VOC finishes and carefully optimizes material yield to reduce waste.
