A decorative shelving for use in the home or in the office. The shelving appears as if it is a part of the original home or office because the shelving matches the original wall surface. The building design and installation is unique because it not only ensures strength and quality, but it also ensures a nearly perfect match with the original wall surface. The shelving method of assembly is very cost effective compared to conventional building methods. The decorative shelving is self-supporting with no visible means of support. The shelving has a cantilever design that has superior strength without the use of struts. The shelving comprises a novel shelf support structure with the shelf having a modular framework.
