Title: Supportive accessory units for modular wall panels

Abstract: A supporting accessory unit such as a shelving unit is adapted for use on a modular wall panel having a peripheral support frame with a decorative planar surface. The shelving unit includes a support assembly capable of being removably attached to the interior of the modular peripheral frame without any additional fasteners. The support assembly includes an upper support shoulder and a force-bearing surface adjacent a U-shaped support bracket. The support bracket is capable of holding cantilevered shelf supports for receiving the actual shelving panel. Alternatively, a removable hook assembly can be suspended from the interior of the wall support frame.
