COMMON YARD BROOMS TRANSFORM INTO PLAYFUL COATRACK the common yard broom becomes an unconventional and versatile design piece in clark bardsley's 'broom'. using five hardware store brooms, the auckland-based designer creates a playful and pragmatic ready-made coat rack, where each handle is placed at a different height for hanging and grasping. bonus point: the inverted bristles, which form the base of the coat rack, can be used as a shoe cleaner! see more submissions by our readers here, and find out how to upload your own project here. the weekly is an inside review curated by sofia lekka angelopoulou. |
