String clothes rack from Nisse Strinning
Casual, formal, colourful or subtle, suitable for work or straightforward at home - the clothes rails and coat hooks on which they are housed are as versatile as coats, jackets and accessories. In public spaces and work contexts, simple, functional solutions are preferred, those which offer enough storage space for as many items of clothing as possible. Free-standing coat racks such as the Kartell Segmenti coat stand with integrated umbrella stand perform their function as reliably as space-saving wall coat racks. The practical and minimalist Knax hook rail, for example, can be strung together and thus expanded as required. Extravagant designs are also very popular in the living area: While the Matégot wardrobe by Gubi quotes the style of the 1950s, the Vitra design classic Hang it all by Charles and Ray Eames delights young and old with its bright balls and creates a positive mood as soon as you get dressed in the morning. The Pin Coat coat stand by Nils Holger Moormann demonstrates functional sophistication without unnecessary frills.

As we are sure you will appreciate we tend to shy away from recommending anything we haven’t seen and/or tested ourselves. That said, the following five exhibitions, all opening in November, caught our attention. And certainly seem worth checking out.......
