About Growing Tree Kapstok
Groeiende Boom is een kapstok ontworpen voor kinderen. De hoogte van Groeiende Boom kan worden aangepast via een spiraalstructuur, zodat de kapstok bruikbaar blijft naarmate kinderen groter worden. Het idee volgt de manier waarop kleine boompjes uitgroeien tot hoge bomen. Geometrische vormen vormen de haken, en dezelfde structuur maakt het mogelijk om hun hoeken en hoogtes te veranderen. Een ronde voet biedt ondersteuning en stabiliteit. Heldere kleuren nodigen kinderen uit om zonder hulp jassen, mutsen en schooltassen op te hangen. Er wordt weinig materiaal gebruikt, waardoor de levensduur van de kapstok wordt verlengd.
