There’s a now a complete (and pretty well designed) solution to help you achieve your dream! The Bath Cabinet BadKast by Anna Van der Lei, a recent graduate of the Design Academy Eindhoven.

Ever hang a coat on back of a chair? Now you can do it in your closet also!

We are always on the lookout for things that we can easily add to our closet design that brings out lots of personality and character. Since we are working with a very limited amount of space, high light items that also serve a functional purpose is a huge plus. These ingenious hangers made out of used chair backs both bring a unique theme to your hanging area and serve a practical need. Although they are probably not the best for long term hanging of your delicate sweaters since they are sort of funky shaped but they would be great for areas of occasional use, like guest coat area.
