The current invention is a device to allow for storage of household goods and articles in an unfinished attic with additional insulation place above the top surface of the joists. The platform device of this application will not interfere with additional insulation and will allow additional storage space without the need for expensive building materials and/or support structure to preserve the integrity of the additional insulation.

1 ) A modular attic storage system for installation and use in residential attic spaces having exposed floor joists, said storage system comprising:
 a plurality of vertical legs for attaching to the floor joists in multiple locations, each leg having a lower leg end adaptably attaching to said floor joist and each said leg further having an upper leg end for attaching to and supporting multiple raised platform sections,   said platforms being supported at a predetermined height above the existing floor joists creating a space for receiving additional attic insulation of standard dimensions.   
     
     
         2 ) An attic storage system comprising a platform, legs & feet,
 a platform of a predetermined size and a means for supporting said platform means for engaging to the joists,   Whereby the attic storage system allows for insulation above the joists.
