Muunto : Crafted by a Helsinki-based company, Muunto’s shelves and cabinets mount to an MDF panel fitted with aluminum grooves. The cabinets come in 13 colors and can be arranged to create custom storage solutions. Unfortunately, they don’t yet have a US distributor.

Atlas Industries : The Atlas AS4 shelving system is another wall-mounted design that works well in small spaces. Crafted from wood, it's richly textured and their site includes ideas for small space media centers, workspaces, and libraries.
Molteni&C Dada Unifor : Although they don't exactly specialize in small spaces, this Italian company is very strong on wall-to-wall shelving, and their gallery of high-end custom designs is appropriate inspiration for anyone considering built in shelves.
