HUT_AB Coat Stand

Description

Based on similar principles as the ES Shelf, the Hut_Ab Coat Stand is also simply constructed. It is made from plywood poles held together with minimal fittings, giving it a makeshift quality that is in tune with Moorman’s vision as a small company focused on creating cost-effective and unpretentious objects that are nonetheless expertly made. This project was the first of many undertaken by Grcic that illustrate the essential relationship between client and designs, fused by a shared creative vision.
