The 'Bügal' is a fusion entryway decor item that does double duty as a place to hold small essentials and outerwear in a decidedly quirky manner. The clever item draws design inspiration from the humble hanger in its shape, but features a deep hollow interior section that offers just enough space for wallets, keys and other daily essential items to be held. This would provide an inhabitant with a place to position their jacket and pocket items upon entering, while also keeping them accessible when running out the door.
The 'Bügal' is the design work of Calvin Middel and Bencekommt, and could help to eliminate clutter at entryways while also enhancing the look and feel of the space to set the carefree tone.
