Designer:
StudioGud. Gud was founded by the designers Alexandre Kumagai and Paulo Neves, a collective based in Porto - Portugal. In 2010, the “gud” idea began to take shape and both decided it was time to carry out this collective project.
“Gud is about design, objects, spaces and stories - the ‘conspiracy’ for something new and meaningful”.
Designer Inspiration:
The curves of the coat hanger aim to convey the movements of the ‘cancan’ dance. The four identical pieces are tied up together with a single leather cord, which creates a visual pattern reminiscent of the corsets used by the dancers. Traditionally ‘cancan’ dancers must be 1,70m in height, which is the same heigh of the coat hanger.
