Sometimes a product is so handy that it does double duty. This one, the Umbra Hub Ladder, a portable wooden rack, can do one better: it’s a triple threat when it comes to home organizing, and we have proof. (It also looks good while doing it, so does that make it a quadruple threat?) Here, we’ve found three ways to make it work at home in various rooms of your house.

A Perfect Small-Kitchen Solution
If your kitchen is low on cabinets, adding a few S-hooks to the rungs of the ladder make it a no-installation-required way to store pots, pans, and even towels. It even doubles as art.
A Floating Plant Hanger
Hang the ladder from the ceiling, and you’ve got a monkey-bar like structure for displaying trailing plants such as pothos. “S” hooks come in handy here, too, though some hanging planters already have a hook.
Optimal Office Organization
Get your workspace in order by placing the ladder between your desk and the wall, an assign each rug a purpose: keeping your place in a book or magazine, displaying your calendar, or hanging on to office supplies.
