Story
An updated coat rack
Derek McLeod's Hang Around takes the classic coat rack and updates it. Cassina describes it as spacious and sturdy, with a soft, rounded expression that contrasts well with the sturdiness of the design.
Pegs and bars
The dedicated pegs and their respective bars give hallways, bedrooms, waiting areas, hotel lobbies and restaurants a welcoming and distinctive look. The design is practical and thoughtful in terms of function, and because it is flat it takes almost no wall space.
