Donata Paruccini Debuts Clothing Rack at Moss

By Lyndsy Welgos | 04 August 2010, 2:48 PM

Donata Paruccini debuts a simple coat rack at Moss. Paruccini's coat rack made from tethered leather balls cleverly turns an everyday often ugly household article into a playful sculptural object. But, as New Yorkers this wasn't the first thing that came to our mind; we were struck by the floor space that the rack could potentially save. Paruccini was born in 1966 in Milan and graduated in Industrial Design at ISIA Florence with Johnathan De Pas. She is one of the most productive industrial designers working from Europe through the last decade. Other objects she has produced include her E-vaso “New agriculture” 2004, where the designer transforms a simple plant soil bag into a minimalist mobile vase. The overwhelming simplicity of her designs have made her a staple of European industrial design and her coat rack is just another example.
