Wall Hooks by Pedersen + Lennard

By Rain Noe - August 17, 2011

It's such a simple design, but I'm really digging these wall hooks by Cape-Town-based design firm Pedersen + Lennard. Product details are nonexistent on their site, but it looks to be a piece of steel that was stamped out, laser-cut and perhaps powder coated after the two flanges were bent outwards to accommodate the wooden dowel.

The design language isn't like any I've seen. Writes Pedersen + Lennard,

Our fabrication process is a combination of hand-made and machine-made elements which all come together in our Salt River workshop.... [Our work reflects] our fascination with South African craft and the clean aesthetic of our Scandinavian forefathers.

The wall hooks come in one-hook, nine-hook and soon three-hook varieties.

A nice update on the Shaker peg type of wall hook. Being able to lift the peg out, loop something around it and reinsert seems like a good way to have a slightly more secure attachment if needed.

I agree, it has a kind of DIY charm mixed with a refined & clean aesthetic. Very cool.

I'd like to see some more pictures of it on different wall types & colors and in different settings though, before I'm 100% sold.

I’m a lapsed industrial designer. I was born in NYC and figured I’d die there, but a few years ago I abandoned New York to live on a farm in the countryside with my wife. We have six dogs.
