Clotheshangers and coat hooks are often overlooked objects in home decoration, but they can be true design elements that add character and personality to a room. In this article, we will explore how these objects can transform an ordinary home into an extraordinary one.

Coat and clothes racks as design objects for the home

Clothes hangers and coat racks are often considered everyday objects of little decorative value. However, today there are numerous models and types of coat and clothes racks that have been designed with an elegant and sophisticated design that can add a touch of style and personality to any room. In fact, many furniture and home accessory designers have realised the importance of these objects, which are not only practical for hanging clothes and accessories, but can also become a striking decoration element. Furthermore, coat and clothes hangers can be made in a wide range of materials, shapes and styles to suit the tastes and needs of any type of environment. For example, there are coat racks made of raw wood, wrought iron, painted metal, Plexiglas, aluminium, and many other materials, each of which lends its own style and personality to the environment in which it is placed.

Where to put coat and clothes racks to make a home original

Coat and clothes racks can be placed in different places in the house, depending on the needs and style of the room. In an entrance hall, for example, a coat rack can be placed near the front door to hang coats, jackets and accessories such as scarves and bags. In a bedroom, on the other hand, a coat rack can be used to hang clothes, dressing gowns or bathrobes. In a bathroom, however, a coat rack can be used to hang towels, dressing gowns or bath clothes. In any case, the choice of the positioning of coat and clothes racks can contribute to creating an original and unique environment, expressing the personality and style of the person living in the home.

How to choose a designer coat rack for your home

Choosing a designer coat rack depends on the style of the house and personal taste. The Agof Store website offers a wide selection of designer coat racks, with a range of styles from classic to modern. Among the products on the site, you can find wooden, metal, plastic, wall or floor hangers, all characterised by an original design and high quality.

Here are some of the most original and popular ones.

Treepod coat stand (Progetti)

The Treepod coat stand has a unique and innovative design, inspired by the shape of a tree. The structure of the coat stand consists of three main 'branches', made of natural wood, with additional appendages, also made of wood, which serve as hooks for hanging clothes, coats, bags and other accessories.

The height of the Treepod coat stand is 170 cm and the diameter of the base is 35 cm, guaranteeing stability and strength. The natural wood finish gives the coat rack an elegant and refined look that blends perfectly into any home or work environment.

Bubble (Mogg)

The Bubble coat stand, created by designer Annebeth Philips for Mogg, is characterised by a minimalist and modern design, composed of a series of spheres, either solitary or in pairs or triplets, in turned beech wood, which seem to float in space. The modular and flexible structure of the kit allows those who place it in their home to hang clothes in an original and creative way, and to create a corner that is not only functional, but also beautiful to look at.

Thanks to its unusual shape, this coat rack can become a truly original and eye-catching piece of furniture, able to attract attention and add a touch of personality to any room.

Acate (Driade)

The Acate coat stand is an essential and minimalist element, yet romantic and poetic at the same time. Characterised by a brass structure - with a matt finish for the "branches" and a polished finish for the "leaves" -, the coat stand consists of a tripod base, from which three arms with leaf-like appendages branch out, on which clothes, coats and accessories can be arranged.

Acate's elegant shape makes it an ideal addition to homes characterised by a more traditional, sumptuous style that winks at the classic aesthetic. It is particularly suitable to be placed in various areas of the home, from the hallway to the entrance hall to the bedroom or study.

Gemma (MiaCara)

The Gemma coat stand is an original and fun design object with simple, clean lines. The elements - available in various shades - are made of high-quality oak wood, with a square oval shape reminiscent of a gem.

Gemma is characterised by its versatility: thanks to its essential shape and modularity, it can easily be placed in different rooms of the house, from the entrance hall to the bedroom. The works of MiaCara, a German brand founded in 2011, focus their attention on the well-being and management of pets: Gemma was therefore created to facilitate the storage of leashes, collars, bags, jackets and much more: but it can be used however you like!

Ramo (Serralunga)

The Ramo coat stand is an object reminiscent of the shape of a garden ladder, with an almost natural appearance. It looks like a sculptural element that can be placed outdoors, leaning against a wall or directly on the ground, to help reach the highest branches of a tree or for small pruning jobs in the garden. It can also be used as a plaything or simply placed decoratively anywhere.

This hanger, inspired by the world of nature, is the ideal solution to amaze and entertain both indoors and outdoors. Thanks to its versatility, it can be placed anywhere, both indoors and outdoors, as it is made of highly resistant materials and colours. In this way, the Ramo clothes hanger not only fulfils its function of hanging clothes, but becomes a unique and original design object that can enrich any environment!
