"Enter The Bugle by Design by Joffey, a coat and umbrella stand that rethinks the entire concept by borrowing its form from an unlikely source: a brass musical instrument. This isn't just clever design for the sake of being clever. It's a genuinely smart solution to a problem that plagues anyone living in tight quarters. Designer: Design by Joffey The beauty of this piece is in its vertical footprint."
"That curved loop is where the magic happens. It's perfectly sized to drape a jacket or hang a scarf, while a smaller ring positioned within the larger curve holds umbrellas upright. Two storage solutions in one compact design, occupying roughly the same footprint as a single dining chair but infinitely more functional and better looking. The proportions feel just right because they're borrowed from something that was already thoughtfully designed. Musical instruments like bugles have curves that exist for acoustic and ergonomic reasons."
The Bugle by Design by Joffey is a coat and umbrella stand modeled on the curves of a brass bugle. Its slim vertical silhouette contains a single curved loop and a flared bell detail atop a slender pole on a circular base. The larger curve accommodates jackets and scarves while a smaller ring within the curve holds umbrellas upright. The footprint equals roughly that of a single dining chair, conserving precious floor space in narrow entryways. The design leverages instrument-derived proportions for ergonomic balance and visual harmony. The piece functions as both practical storage and a sculptural object.
