Quirky Structural Clothes Hangers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The HANG / WE Hanger Emphasizes a Sense of Individuality

— March 24, 2024 — Art & Design
Yun A Jang, Nahyun Kim, JongWon Kim, SEUNGMIN LEE, and HWANJONG CHOI work together to create the HANG / WEhanger. It is a unique clothing hanger that is inspired by individuality above all else. The unique structure tells a story beyond an object that holds apparel. The philosophy is rooted in the idea that traditional hangers strip away a sense of individuality in clothing. The designers aim to create an accessory that tells the stories of five special characters through the respective hangers.

Each one is a vancas to tell a tale, unveiling the personality of the user within the visual design. This includes the Layered + Hang which holds various items. The Ribbon & Tie Styling is artful and emotionally inspired by the way clothing drapes over shoulders. The Concat _Ws aids organization and the Everything, Everywhere can literally 'hold anything, anywhere.' Finally, the Plus – Minus is modular and can alter depending on its need.
