Going Way Basics is Way Better

Way Basics, a new furniture company is bringing affordable, customizable designs made out of 99% post consumer materials right to your door. Recognizing a need for stylish, affordable eco-design, the California-based company developed a line without tools and limits.

Don’t go to the site looking for bookshelves, tables or desks though – they don’t label their products that way because they see their “z-board” basic series as building blocks. You can choose to configure your blocks any way that you want to create the pieces that work for you – add shelves, partitions, more blocks, doors and see what you can come up with. Check out their design gallery for a little inspiration.

And, no – you don’t need a tool set. Everything that you need comes with your building blocks…just a little tape, time and creativity. And, yes – they promise that they are sturdy enough to hold 200lbs.
