Its narrow footprint and dual surfaces make it genuinely practical—not just decorative. The washed grey painted finish has that understated Nordic elegance that works across both traditional and pared-back modern interiors, while the engineered board construction keeps it accessible. Pair it alongside a sofa or use it as a bedside surface in a snug bedroom. The painted surfaces will develop a gentle patina over time, adding to its charm—though do avoid prolonged moisture exposure to preserve the finish.
