Charles and Ray Eames
Hang-It-All

Issue Date: June 17, 2008
City:
Santa Monica, CA

With a sense of fun and whimsy, Charles and Ray Eames created a wall rack that amuses while it fulfills its utilitarian purpose.  Hang-It-All was created with children in mind.  First produced in 1953, it held hats, coats, umbrellas, backpacks, ice-skates and more. 

Hang-It–All is a perfect example of the Eameses’ commitment to useful function presented in an exciting form.  Its round, wooden balls hold possessions gently, yet securely.  Each of its 14 balls is made of maple, for durability, and painted nine different colors for visual impact.  Hang-It-All’s metal base is constructed of welded steel and painted white for easy upkeep.

Throughout their careers, the husband-and-wife design team applied the same attention to detail to everything they designed.  Their work included the design of homes, furniture, and museum exhibitions, as well as filmmaking and more.  They also created a variety of children’s toys and furniture, which were originally made as gifts for their grandchildren and the children of friends.

In 2008, the Eames Hang-It-All was featured on a 42¢ stamp, one of a pane of 16 issued by the U.S. Postal Service to honor the contributions of Charles and Ray Eames to American design.
