Swing and Hang

Jung Hyun Han / Chairs on the Hill

$1800

There's something cathartic about shedding your clothes at the end of a day in a heap on the floor, or at least the chair. But it's a catharsis that only lasts as long as it takes to fall asleep - come morning, it's just unsightly and hence the need for a Swing and Hang. Jung Hyun Han designs products that are, "intimate with everyday life but beyond everydayness" and her Swing and Hang is exactly this. The Seoul-based designer explains that she was inspired to "capture a moment of harmony between object and user." Made from birch and plywood, the space-friendly clothes hanger has adjustable rungs that pop out when needed and back again when not, in a particularly harmonious, tidy way.
