# Recycled Rope Hangers Sebastian Zachl's Coat Hook Design Uses Leftover Scraps of String By Gil Cohen | Published 2013-03-31 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coat-hook-design References: [fromeurope.org](http://www.fromeurope.org/tips.php?cis=2496) & [zachl.at](http://www.zachl.at/sebastian/2012/01/rope-_kleiderhaken/) From various craft projects, artist Sebastian Zachl is left with [scraps of colorful rope](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mammut-loopinsulation) that he put to use in his [recycled coat hook design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velto) project. Filling the pieces of rope with a mystery material that he refuses to divulge, although it is probably some type of sturdy wire, he bends them into shape and tops them off with knots. The loop at the top stays true to the material, emphasizing the impressive use of rope in this decor idea, and also serves as a way to attach the hooks to a wall or door. Using a collection of mismatched ropes and colors, the hooks have a DIY aesthetic that is very stylish. Sebastian Zachl incorporates this rope coat hook design on hangers as well. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 67% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Recycled Materials:** Opportunity for businesses to create innovative products by repurposing scrap materials. - **DIY Aesthetic:** Potential for businesses to offer stylish DIY-inspired decor and accessories. - **Sustainable Design:** Emerging trend of incorporating eco-friendly elements into product design. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Home Decor:** Opportunity for home decor businesses to create unique and eco-conscious products with recycled materials. - **Fashion Accessories:** Potential for fashion accessory brands to capitalize on the DIY aesthetic and offer trendy, sustainable products. - **Art and Craft Supplies:** Emerging market for art and craft supply companies to cater to the demand for eco-friendly materials and DIY-inspired projects. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sporty Climbing-Inspired Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grip-hanger.md) - [Climbing Rope-Crafted Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/entwined-objects.md) - [Geometrically Shaped Hanger Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triangle-hanger.md) - [Quirky Structural Clothes Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hang-we.md) - [Deflated Balloon Clothing Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chong-shop.md) - [Resin Hardware Revivals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meta-hardware.md) - [Rotating Punctuation Mark Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emotion-hanger.md) - [Soft Rope Lampshades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hat-collection.md) - [Modular Minimal Wardrobe Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/koi-cloths.md)
