Modern Classics: Eames’ Hang It All

31 Oct

So, I’ve had this in-store for a few weeks now, but I’ve been so busy that I almost forgot to feature this Modern Classic from my favorite mid-century modern designer.  Geez!

The great thing about the Hang It All is that it fits right in with the Eames’ modus operandi, ‘fun, functional, sleek.’  I guess the fun part is particularly true, as the Hang It All was originally introduced in 1953 as part of their children’s line for Tigrett Enterprise’s Playhouse Division.  But old people love fun things too.  Just take a look at makes boring walls, foyers and entryways fun and quirky:

In this fabulously retro, mid-century modern living room, the Eames Hang It All makes a good home for all your jewelry.  Shown here with a gorgeous mid-century modern curtain and the Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair.

The Eames Hang It All finds a home for its intended audience in this adorable children’s mudroom.  Doubled up atop a banquet, two is better than one since kids have a lot of stuff that tends to need hanging:

And finally, it makes a really cute addition to a sitting room or living room for a bit of open storage:

The solid steel, white powder-coated frame is characterized by solid wooden ball “hooks” in eight distinctive colors – blue, orange, purple, green, red, yellow, pink and black.
