if you’re picking up anything about me from the musings i’m putting down here, it’s that i find sculptural functional things pleasing, which leads me to this coat rack made of oak from belgian and swiss based designers big-game. to me it looks like fred astaire in singular wood form: lithe, lean and ready to move around the room at any moment.

it’s so simple i can smell a diy nearby, but could any be quite as elegant as this?

find it at generate.
