A wiry [jacket holder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triangle-hanger), this piece is definitely a new and interesting take on the traditional stand. Interestingly enough, the Coatstand by Verner Panton is a retro throwback. It was originally designed in 1971, but has been re-released as a new edition for contemporary use. I wouldn't have guessed that it was first created almost 40 years ago. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 15% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: 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 ### What's Driving This Trend - **Retro Home Decor:** Bringing back old designs and adapting them for modern use can create a nostalgic appeal in the market and cater to the customer's psychographic preference for vintage and classic items. - **Chromatic Accents:** Colorful, quirky pieces like the Coatstand can be a niche market appeal, playing up to the playful side of consumers and can be an opportunity to market in places with the same sensibility. - **Functional Design:** Design doesn't have to be just an aesthetic choice but can lead to functional and innovative solutions that influence future products in the market. ### Who This Affects Most - **Interior Design:** The Coatstand by Verner Panton can appeal to interior designers and can be a jumping point for creating drama and scale in a room's decor. - **Manufacturing:** Incorporating design innovation into a daily used item can give a manufacturer an edge in an over saturated home products market, and can cater to a niche market who likes their everyday items to be playful and fun. - **Retail:** Developing and marketing nostalgic or colorful home decor items can provide a retail store with a uniqueness factor, increase brand differentiation, and cater to a market that prefers novelty. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fiberglass Mid-Century Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/panton-chair.md) - [Spring-Ready Vibrant Homeware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flowerpot-range.md) - [Immersive Design Tributes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circle-dome-square.md) - [Vertical Coat Racks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-bugle.md) - [Tripod-Like Garment Racks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multifunctional-coat-rack.md) - [Funky Colorful Storage Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorful-storage-units.md) - [Quirky Structural Clothes Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hang-we.md) - [Wall Art Umbrella Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/justin-case.md) - [Sporty Climbing-Inspired Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grip-hanger.md)
