Description
The Vitra Hang It All Coat Rack by Charles & Ray Eames are designed to liven up the traditional coat racks. The range of racks can be used to hold anything from bags and coats, to caps and capes. Multiple coat racks can be mounted alongside one another for additional storage needs.
Our Stylist Says
It looks like there's a mix-up with the product category, as the Vitra Hang It All Coat Rack isn’t a ceiling light but a practical and playful coat hook with a colourful, retro-inspired design. I love how it adds a touch of fun and colour to any hallway or utility space, making it a perfect statement piece in more casual or eclectic interiors. To style it effectively, consider placing it in an entryway or mudroom where its visual appeal can be appreciated, and pair it with a simple backdrop to let the hooks and their colours stand out. It works particularly well in modern, vintage-inspired, or Scandinavian interiors, adding both function and personality without requiring a lot of space.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
