Ascending Storage Systems

Zeugwart Coat and Shoe Rack is Inclined to Store More in a Small Area

Can your closet allow you to neatly stash up to 26 pairs of shoes, as well as several jackets, scarves and handbags? The Zeugwart Coat and Shoe Rack can and it does so within the impressive floor surface area of under 50 centimeters by 50 centimeters.

The ladder-style composition of the wooden coat rack makes this possible with its series of staggered steps. These are installed close together from the foot of the furnishing to the very top. An additional section with a few extra rungs escapes perpendicularly, providing rods that are suitable for slinging garments and suspending coat hangers.

The slight wall-ward tilt that's worked into Alexander Schmied's Zeugwart Coat and Shoe Rack angles footwear upwards to keep it securely in place. This orientation is also a lighthearted reference to the way that extension ladders are stably propped up.
