The Splash Coat Rack Sports a Stylish and Simple Silhouette
Meghan Young — January 30, 2013 — Art & Design
The Splash Coat Rack at once makes a statement while staying appropriately in the background. While the vibrant colors allows it to brighten up the dark corner it will most likely be thrust into, its simple silhouette blends in perfectly so as to not draw too much attention to its practical existence.
Designed by Blu Dot, an American design studio founded by three college friends, the Splash Coat Rack is loosely inspired by a splash of water, hence its name. It is made out of powder-coated steel and walnut. Complete with four spires for hats, bags, scarfs and, of course, jackets, the Splash Coat Rack comes in five colors: bright blue, putty grey, complete yellow, humble red and basic white.
