TOBIAS COAT RACK

TOBIAS COAT RACK

Designed by Massimo Broglio

The multifaceted architect and designer, Massimo Broglio, with his cross-cutting style, innovation and pragmatism, has designed the Edith project, which has evolved from a simple chair to an entire collection, encompassing a small table, a coat rack and shelves.

The inspiration for the Tobias coat rack comes from the three legs of the Niels table. In the case of the coat rack, three squared elements of different lengths are assembled together at different angles.

The perception is that of a conceptual "ephemeral sculpture" or "land art" installation, in a nod to contemporary art. The addition of metal pegs in contrasting colours makes for additional adaptability and versatility.
