About Parachute Rak Dinding
Parachute adalah rak dinding yang terbuat dari lembaran logam. Ketika sebuah bagian sedang digunakan, papan pada bagian tersebut turun dan menggantung pada tempatnya. Papan yang menggantung ini menahan mantel, majalah, atau benda serupa dan mencegahnya terjatuh. Permukaannya menampilkan garis-garis berwarna yang dipisahkan oleh celah-celah tipis, sehingga rak ini mengingatkan pada tampilan grafis parasut modern dan juga dapat dibaca sebagai karya seni dinding. Parachute memiliki lebar 790 mm, kedalaman 30 mm, dan tinggi 220 mm. Namanya menyatukan gagasan tentang melindungi dan terjatuh.

- When listening to Coldplay's first album, it suddenly occurred to me to look up the word "Parachute."
It seems that the name "parachute" comes combining the Italian "parare" (to protect) with the French "chute" (to fall).
I thought that was a rather fine name.
I tried to think of devices that protect against falling.
