Tilt by German designer Tina Schmid is a morphing object, moving from a flat graphic on the wall to a three-dimensional object.

Both objects boast an ingenious system of rods with jointed nodes that can be rotated as needed.

"At Subports we're on a daily mission to simplify who and what we are; it can be a struggle, and it's all in an effort to get to the heart of what our core message is.  The act of stripping away and getting to that core message is one that every great artist has perfected.  In our opinion, someone who has achieved this art of simplification is Colgate Searle.  Anyone who can turn a mundane wire coat hanger into a work of art gets our highest respect."  Photo by JJ Sulin.

8. Krummi hanger by Ingibjörg Hanna Bjarnadottir. "The Krummi is by Icelandic designer Ingibjörg Hanna Bjarnadottir. We have a couple of these in our bedroom, they're great for hanging up a sweater or displaying your newest piece of clothing, but they also look sculptural with nothing on them. In Iceland you can find these hanging in windows to keep birds from flying into them."
