FLOATING FURNITURE

Designer: Emily Roose

Custom Floating Furniture | Media Cabinets, Credenzas, Nightstands & Bookcases

Martis Camp, Truckee, CA + Somersett, Reno, NV

Emily Roose Interiors designs custom floating furniture as part of a fully integrated residential design approach—bringing architectural clarity, refined storage, and modern functionality to luxury interiors.

Created for residences in Martis Camp and Somersett, these bespoke pieces—including floating media cabinets, credenzas, nightstands, and bookcases—were designed to provide tailored storage solutions with a lighter visual footprint. By lifting each element off the floor, the interiors feel more open, restrained, and visually connected throughout the home.

Each piece is developed specifically for its environment, with careful attention to proportion, materiality, and architectural integration. Rather than functioning as standalone furnishings, the pieces operate as part of a larger coordinated system aligned with the home’s interior architecture and furnishing plan.

The result is a seamless integration of storage and design—where custom detailing, spatial clarity, and functional living come together in a clean contemporary expression.
