A coffee side table with a lower shelf of storage. It’s expected to be beside my dining table so we can place items like cereals in it

A tall, narrow, and exceptionally stable side table specifically engineered to sit flush beside a standard dining table. Standing at 36 inches tall with a narrow 12-inch depth, this piece features a lower shelf and a middle shelf designed with perfect clearances to house tall items like cereal boxes. To mitigate tipping risks inherent to its 3:1 height-to-depth ratio, the bottom shelf is placed low to the ground (5 inches from the floor) to lower the center of gravity, and all structural joints utilize robust mechanical fasteners combined with high-grade wood glue to resist lateral racking forces.
