Perch Coat Stand by Nendo

Perch coat stand by Nendo. Materials: Base: Black or White powder-coated Mdf or Verde Marinace Granite/Emperado SilverDark/Emperador Tundra/Red marble Structure: Black chrome metal, black/white/champagne powder-coated metal Dimensions: W51 x D36 x H170 cm Perch is a coat stand that draws inspiration from the delicate and scattered tracks birds leave on the ground, joined together by a single line. As opposed to other coat stands, which consist of a central post with thinner arms growing out of it at the end, Perch challenges expectations with a design that develops along its central pole, branching out into three prongs, then three more, then again three more, in a process reminiscent of how crystals or corals form, thereby obscuring the distinction between the pole and the arms.
