Pianos are primarily considered beautiful for their ebony and ivory keys as well as their often curvaceous outer form, yet as the Piano Hanger shows us, a piano's intricate inner workings are just as stunning. In fact, I would say that the movement within would captivate the audience if it were visible for them to see.
Designed by Patrick Seha for Feld, the Piano Hanger takes this unseen beauty and reveals it to the world, although not for a musical purpose. Instead, the Piano Hanger forms a clever coat rack that remains flush against the wall when not in use, making it perfect for tight hallways or small spaces in general. I like how it looks like an art piece when not in use.
