Modern Coat Rack

With the daily need for coats that this (still rather warm) winter is bringing, our mid-century house was in sudden need of a modern coat rack. The pile-of-coats-on-a-chair-near-the-door look was getting old fast.

We don't have the wall space for a modern coat hook. If we did I might have gone with the Eames Hang-It-All.

So I went on the hunt and after shopping many online stores I realized that most of the modern coat racks that I liked were made by one company: Addesso. A lot of these modern coat racks have a similar look to the Eames Hang-It-All, which is probably why I like them.

The modern coat rack we ended up with was the Adesso Evergreen Coat Rack. I really like the tree-like look of it and it adds an interesting visual point next to the door. Plus, it's a good place to hang your hat.

    Adesso really does have some cool products! I like the coat rack you chose. I think you'll have less "fallage" with the angled hooks than with the perpendicular ones. I'm guessing you probably wouldn't like the pile-of-coats-at-the-base-of-the-rack-near-the-door look either. :)

      Coats falling was a serious consideration/concern with other racks - especially with online shopping/returning. I'm sure all the other coat racks would have been fine, but I really liked the Evergreen, so why risk it?
