Small apartments usually mean no storage, and putting in shelves when you rent could jeopardize your security deposit, so Tahsin Emre from Istanbul designed these Zigzag shelves.
His Zigzag shelving folds up to a fraction of its height and is really easy to set up. Best of all, no assembly.
*Tahsin Emre’s Zigzag shelving can be seen on Home Chunk and on Immib Endütriyel Tasarim Yarismalari
If you are slowly running out of shelf space but are nowhere near “Hoarder” status yet you should think about making some of your own shelves. Recreate has a tutorial that won’t even require you to wait for your husband to get home from work to help you, it’s simple enough for even the most woodwork-challenged person to follow. This rope shelf would also look super cute with framed photographs of friends and family up on it.

Gummitwist is a set of rubber bands, painted metal shelves and wooden rods that with a bit of twisting and stretching, convert into a sturdy set of shelves. Gummitwist rubber bands are available in 6 colours and the shelves can be hung or floor standing.
What a way to introduce a flash of colour to something that can be pretty dull like bookshelves.
Gummitwist were designed by Nino Guelker via Looks, Feels, Works
