Sjoerd Vroonland, the designer for the Moooi Extension Chair didn’t conceive a chair just to be a four-legged item. He transformed the chair into a coat hanger seat – an ingenious way to elevate an everyday object into something more purposeful and eye-catching.

It also helps that it’s a great conversation starter!
