Acerca de este libro electrónico
Hanger Holds Clothes unveils the surprisingly complex story behind the humble wire hanger, transforming it from an unnoticed object into a lens through which to view history, design, and consumer culture. From its 1903 invention, the hanger's design evolution reflects shifts in manufacturing, domestic organization, and even ergonomics. Initially a simple wire loop, its journey reveals how societal needs and design philosophies shape even the most utilitarian objects. The book traces the hanger's history, examining the social and economic factors that led to its widespread adoption and the impact of material culture on its design. For instance, the availability of new materials and manufacturing processes throughout the 20th and 21st centuries directly influenced hanger design. Examining historical patents, advertisements, and manufacturing records, the book progresses from the hanger's early development to its contemporary relevance, including innovations focused on sustainability and space optimization. Through an interdisciplinary approach, Hanger Holds Clothes presents the wire hanger as more than just a tool for clothing storage. It highlights the hanger's role as a cultural artifact, reflecting our relationship with clothing and the spaces we inhabit. By treating this everyday object as a focal point, the book provides unique insights into the intersection of design, technology, and consumerism, making it a valuable resource for design enthusiasts, historians, and anyone curious about the hidden stories behind the objects we take for granted.
