The W* House / Hall

'Spin' coat stand

Studio Taschide / Schönbuch

£450

Grand entrances can often make all the wrong impressions, but with the right prop, such as this sinewy coat stand, it's bound to have everyone talking, but in a good way. Slender steel tubes, in white, granite or coral, curve in a continuous loop into sturdy cross bars for coats, scarves and assorted sartorial accessories with an umbrella stand slotted neatly between. A small tray for keys and the like slips over a waist-high cross bar. The stand can just as easily be moved out of the hallway -- with a few adjustments, it compressed to fit a smaller room. The only thing Spin doesn't do is show you how to make an equally dramatic exit.
