Numi Studio is a direct-to-consumer furniture brand based in Rancho Cordova, California, specializing exclusively in modular storage solutions. Founded in 2017 by CEO Ben Parsa under CABA Design Corp, the company focuses on adaptable shelving rather than traditional seating. Their signature Kobe and Nara product lines feature a convertible base design. This allows units to function as floating nightstands, single display cases, or large media centers.

The brand draws heavy inspiration from Japanese woodworking. This results in a minimalist aesthetic characterized by clean lines and versatile forms. Operating an in-house design model, Numi Studio produces its inventory in small batches. Customers can expand their setups infinitely by stacking units vertically or attaching them horizontally to fit different room dimensions.

Production relies on FSC-certified ash plywood and eco-solvent finishes. The company recycles excess materials during manufacturing and maintains a partnership with the National Forest Foundation. Pricing scales based on configuration. A single base module retails around $439, while large 16-unit bookcase systems reach approximately $7,000.
