A couch and coffee table are top of mind when furnishing a living room, with lamps and lounge chairs added if space allows. A magazine rack, while admittedly not essential, is an underrated and design-forward accessory. Beyond serving as a receptacle for notable print issues, a magazine rack can make a space feel more complete: molded plywood enhances a minimal, mid-century-inspired space, while a powder-coated steel frame is in keeping with contemporary trends. Consider it a low-lift way to sample a new aesthetic, or simply bring cohesion to a room.
Umbra Arling Magazine Rack

Resembling two hands coming together to form the shape of a “v,” the Arling rack is an affordable way to show off your print media. There’s not much too it — throw your magazines in it and grab an issue when the mood strikes — but that’s what makes this such a great product.
