Many designers spend years developing their designs, simply to make them better and better. This was certainly not the case with Mathieu Matégot; he only devoted one decade to the design of furniture and interior accessories, yet these distinctive 1950s designs would later be considered iconic.

With its visually striking brass centrepiece and three-armed construction, the Matégot Coat Rack is a perfect example of the designer's experimental approach to shapes and forms. Manufactured by Gubi, it is available in three distinct colourways, making a sculptural alternative to traditional coat racks or stands.
