Objects Of Design #320: Branch Coat Hanger

The trouble with lots of coat hangers/hooks/racks, call them what you will, is that the hooks are never really big enough so we end up piling on far too many coats, which not only looks horrible, but is entirely impractical as you usually want the one at the bottom and they all end up falling to the floor and you haven’t got time to pick them up and it’s seven shades of chaos all before 8.30 in the morning.

So, this then. A rather lovely object (apparently inspired by chair legs) that has good-sized hooks and plenty of them. Perfect for the hall, good as a bit of sculpture too – on those rare occasions when there’s nothing hanging there.
