RAMO CLOTHES HANGERS
Designed by Marcantonio, 2019
An accessory that pays tribute to the two most important materials used over the centuries – wood in its shape and metal in its substance – Ramo is a sculpture that interprets the coat stand and is also a rather clear reference to what was quite possible the first “hanger” in history.
The two hooks - covered by two of the three main branches the hanger is made of - allow it to hang from a wall and therefore does not need to rest on a base.
Ramo artistically reinterprets a branch resting on a wall, which nevertheless does not forget its functional nature; its 11 tiny branches act as hooks and turn it into a clothes hanger, which ensures great capacity in a limited space.
Available in three finishes – pure white, corten effect to give an ancient nuance and a refined galvanic gold plating - it is a piece that positively embellishes all the environment it is hosted in, whether public or private. Ramo is part of the capsule collection Atavica, presented during the 58th edition of the Salone del Mobile in Milan.
“I think that some natural elements like the ramifications of trees embody in themselves nature’s utmost strenght, through their ability to adapt, to grow, to expand and give life to leaves, flowers, fruits. This is why I decided to make Ramo, giving it the cloack of royalty that it deserves through a noble material like metal and a precoius golden finish.”

DESIGNER
MARCANTONIO
Marcantonio Raimondi Malerba was born in 1976 in Massalombarda, Italy. He attended the Art Institute and the Academy of Fine Arts.
Just graduated he begins to work in the theater scene and collaborating with architects on projects.
Soon he begins to create unique pieces of design in parallel with a production of art, but step by step the two careers are beginning to become contaminated. So its design is enriched with artistic concepts. For over 10 years he worked for private or local public realizes.
Connections between Man and Nature are his favourite theme; interpreting both dynamics and beauties of nature; showing the Man's attitude affecting the original.
Marcantonio loves thinking about his work as a direct continuation of what he used to do when he was a child, playing with everything he finds, and create what his mind imagined. Actually, looking for the aesthetic component and concept, takes ideas from the same sources he created while playing, daydreaming with everything normally surrounds him. He learned from Art how an idea could be elegant, that's why he's always looking for pure concepts and summary.
