Have you heard of ladder shelves?

If this is the first time you've heard of ladder shelves, they are simply a vertical row of shelves that look like an A-Ladder, with a few slight changes.

You will find a variety of different styles in your local home depot; the two main varieties are the Freestanding' and leaning' types.
