I love the work of the designers at Yeduo who add a really quirky twist to everyday times such as hangers - yes clothes hangers!
Their new range includes items inspired by sports such as the gymnastic and football hangers. Older designs include one based on the concept of being chased by a shark which combines the shape of a swimmer with a sea wave. Best of all, the sea wave has an optimal shape to suit any clothes with string.
There is also a pole jump hanger which they say was created at a dramatic moment, making the entire surrounding space come alive dramatically. I am not sure if I buy into their concepts, but the hangers look pretty darn cool.
