Folding bike furniture (that doesn't hide your bike)

Not to post redundant stuff, but I was wondering if you have examples of furniture to store your folding bikes that don't hide your bike.

I just came back from riding to the local coffee shop (it's seriously called "the local"), and realized that my enclosed porch is perfect for my Brompton.
I'm thinking of making an enclosed shelf for it, or just buying a Kallax unit.

On top, I was going to grow some herbs.


Do you have good examples?

Do you have a tablesaw in your woodshop to make what you want to see ?

I'd look on the internet if I were in your position ...

Your Brompton Junction store displays may offer some suggestions ..

This has been posted before and I think it looks great.


This is a bedroom closet where I built shelves to hold my Brompton and Park Tool Box.

You can certainly get creative and build something to suit your needs.

Nice!

Fwiw, I have a table saw, and build guitars...well I built a few.
However, don't have lots of time, so prefer premade.

After I finish the instruments that I promised people, I hope to quite building for a while...may maybe a long while
