The closest to what you're looking for is a Ribbon control.

However, I'm sure you'd be able to create the same effect using an ItemsControl that can handle a ItemsTemplate and style that to look the way you need it to look, then have content on the right hand side dynamically change bound to the selected item of theItemsControl.

Looks like a styled vertical WPF tab control with buttons replacing some of the tab headers. You could probably create something similar in wpf using the style and template features.

If you don't want to use a full blown Ribbon control, then just take a listbox and style it to look pretty. Much easier in WPF than WinForms (you didn't specify which you are using)
