# Signpost Clothes Hooks The Sign Coat Rack Points You in the Direction of a Tidy Front Foyer By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-05-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sign-coat-rack References: [taschide](http://www.taschide.com/) & [formvorrat.net](http://www.formvorrat.net/) A simple row of hooks would certainly do the trick to arrange the outerwear clutter of your entrance way, but where would be the character in that? The Sign Coat Rack is a playful piece with wonderful personality to liven up the look of your front hall. [Studio Taschide](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/museum-foyer) was inspired by the iconic street sign, typically observed as a pole on a street corner with fastened panels that indicate the names of the intersecting roads. In this residential rendition, the FORMvorRAT product is missing the labeled strips and instead offers open rectangular gaps through which [coat hangers can be hung](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triangle-hanger). Two of such pivoting rails exist, while a third presents three [coat hooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rak) on either side. The Sign Coatrack comes in either white or black to become a bold focus in an otherwise chaotic space. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 13% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## 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 - **Playful Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating products that add personality and liven up spaces. - **Inspired by Street Signs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Applying the iconic visual language of street signs to various products and industries. - **Functional Aesthetics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing products that are both visually appealing and serve a practical purpose. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing unique and playful designs to home decor products. - **Furniture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating unconventional inspirations, such as street signs, into furniture designs. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring the fusion of functionality and aesthetics in interior design concepts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Smiley Clothing Wall Hooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/itsahook.md) - [Tripod-Like Garment Racks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multifunctional-coat-rack.md) - [Quirky Structural Clothes Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hang-we.md) - [Swedish Entryway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/classic-collection.md) - [Stylish Multi-Use Entryway Racks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/entryway-shoe-rack.md) - [Wall-Mounted Wall Rack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velto.md) - [Sporty Climbing-Inspired Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grip-hanger.md) - [Rotating Punctuation Mark Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emotion-hanger.md) - [Geometrically Shaped Hanger Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triangle-hanger.md)
