It's always been a rich-nations problem—having so much crap that you need to buy more crap to keep the initial crap organized. That's the world we live in, and it's what our economy is based on. Here's what designers have done within that system in 2023.

Also for space-tight bathrooms, the Yamazaki Tower Shelf piggybacks on the towel bar.
