Kartell "H-Hanger" coat stand by Philippe Starck
Iconic coat stand designed by Philippe Starck for Kartell, featuring the instantly recognizable sculptural top inspired by organic, floral forms. Manufactured in high-quality plastic and metal, this design combines playful aesthetics with everyday functionality. A true contemporary classic that adds a bold yet elegant statement to modern interiors, offices, or entrance halls.
This Kartell “H-Hanger” coat stand, designed by Philippe Starck, is a striking example of late-20th-century Italian design where functionality, irony, and sculptural form merge seamlessly. Produced by Kartell, the H-Hanger embodies Starck’s signature approach: everyday objects elevated into instantly recognizable design statements.
The design is defined by its distinctive top section, composed of organic, umbrella-like forms that double as functional hooks. This playful yet intelligent structure provides ample hanging space while remaining visually light and well-balanced. The vertical metal stem and weighted circular base ensure excellent stability, making the piece suitable for both residential and professional environments.
Manufactured using high-quality plastics combined with metal elements, the H-Hanger reflects Kartell’s long-standing expertise in innovative materials and industrial production. The result is a coat stand that is durable, practical, and visually expressive without being intrusive. Its slim footprint allows it to fit easily into entry halls, dressing rooms, offices, boutiques, or contemporary living spaces.
More than a utilitarian object, the H-Hanger is a collectible design piece that captures the spirit of modern Italian design—functional, witty, and architecturally refined. An ideal choice for design enthusiasts seeking a recognizable work by one of the most influential designers of our time.
