It's quite usual to have a storage system that either hides or shows off your possessions. Called simply the Cupboard, this piece of furniture lets you do both in a way that's open to constant reconfiguration. The wooden unit has seven levels of alternatingly short and tall heights and sliding doors on tracks can be kept open or closed.
The big timber commode can store many many things and conceal every last one of them if that's what you prefer. However, should you choose to stash sculptures, photos, trophies or other displayable objects inside of the Cupboard, you might want to leave the panels shifted so to allow for a view inside. Because of the nature of the setup, these openings can be created on either side of the Cupboard from the base to the top.
