how to hang a painting with wire
Created in 1953 by Charles and Ray Eames, the Hang It All covering arbor — with its afterlife of airy baubles — is still a affection of abounding hallways. The wall-mounted hooks were conceived as a fun allurement for bedraggled accouchement to put abroad their belongings, but the colourful architecture ashore with parents, and the adventitious benefit of the 14 varnished board assurance is that blind jackets are kept crease-free.
The American husband-and-wife duo were beat inventors whose designs came to be alike with the mid-century movement — and the Hang It All is one of their best abiding examples. Their use of avant-garde techniques began with the conception of heat-formed plywood during the additional apple war, back Charles created splints for the US Navy that mimicked the curves of the animal leg. Their absorption in ergonomic architecture connected with form-moulded wire cobweb chairs, and the aforementioned adjustment address they developed from banal able drawers was acclimated to actualize the Hang It All’s powder-coated wire frame.
To bless what would be Ray Eames’ 100th altogether in 2012, European licence-holder Vitra collaborated with Dutch automated artist Hella Jongerius to actualize new variations application her Daylight Wheel colour chart. Red, white and blooming designs are modelled on how acrylic tones alter as the ablaze changes throughout the day.
