This achingly simple storage unit by Notre Design Studio is the perfect rack to keep at the door.
Made using steel tubes with an oak base, this stunning clothes rack by the Swedish firm will look good wherever you decide to place it and will carry a fairly large amount of clothes and trinkets.
Designed for the Spanish company Punt, this simple storage unit was originally created for the storage of outerwear such as coats and footwear -- but what you decide to do with it is up to you.
"In Scandinavia it is very common to take off your shoes when you come home and there is always a problem with where to put them," says Cristiano Pigazzini of Note Design Studio. "Everyday stuff like shoes and bags in the hallway or sleeping room that lands on the floor looks messy and out of order."
