Logs

Hanna Litwin and Romin Heide from the Berlin-based studio Büro Famos were intrigued by the idea of making a simple product from a small number of wooden components. When developing their product, they noticed that TON furniture production produces lots of pieces of quality beech and oak wood that are not suitable for making chairs, but are perfect for their coat hanger. Logs hangers are shipped in cardboard that was once used for shipping chairs. Customers can request that the cardboard from their orders be returned once their furniture is unpacked, and the returned cardboard is used anew. In addition, the coat hangers are packed in a workshop employing people with disabilities, located right inside the TON company complex,“ elaborates Romin on the full social impact of their product.

The minimalist design lends itself to a wide range of uses and playful combinations. “The coat hangers can be hung individually, arranged as multiples in a row, or clustered in a group with each hanger finished in a different PANTONE shade,” adds Hanna. So go ahead and hang Logs on your wall.
