The concept behind Hometree by KK Wong is utterly delightful, as a comment on and an appreciation of kindred life. Taking from the Asian culture's value of family, the designer created this elegant [branching ornament](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aghsan) on which one [blue bird](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigbilled-bird-food-concept) can be perched for each parent and child.

The idea is that when every family member returns home at the end of the day, he can hang his keys from a cute avian clip. When every bird is clutching a set, the tree is full and the house is as it should be.

It's handy to have a [designated place to put your keys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grip-hanger), and the hook and peg system is quite convenient. But spreading its wings beyond practicality alone, Hometree by KK Wong provides endearing decor and a heartwarming metaphor behind it.
