The Hiroshima Coat Rack is Kept Afloat with a Red Balloon

This Hiroshima Coat Rack makes light of a major historical event that took over 100,000 lives. In considering this cartoony clothes hook, however, I can appreciate its attempt to emasculate the weapon of mass destruction by playfully tying a balloon to it so that the bomb will never drop.

This may of course suggest that one’s hanging of hats and jackets on the Hiroshima Coat Rack would essentially indicate his intention to drag down the explosive. The clothes hooks, designed by Mehmet Erdi Özgürlük & Anıl Ercan, are truly one of the most unique clothes hooks I’ve ever seen.
