This highly-practical piece of furniture, designed by Hyuh-Jin Lee & Hyeroung Choen, doubles as a [chair and hanger](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chameleon-furniture), a design concept that can come in very handy in cafes and restaurants. The hanger can be used to conveniently hold your jacket, coat or bag. It's always a chore to find a suitable place for your bag or jacket when there are no empty seats at the table. And placing an expensive bag on the dirty floor is a crime.

The obvious flaw I see with this design is that you present your valuables in a very inviting way to thieves who can easily snatch it from behind your back without you noticing or having the time to react.

Here are four more designs with [built-in racks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rak):
