‘sigh’ is a five product collection for small spaces by spanish designer pola clapés. using a simple system based on a hook, the line includes five different products including a plant hanger, clothes line, and three tables of various sizes.

designed for small balcony spaces, ‘sigh’ moves activities outside in an adaptive manner that is minimal as possible. the three tables, all constructed with phenolic plywood, are placed in the corners of the balcony using the railing as a bracket to rest upon. when not in use, a bent metal rod allows the piece to be hung from the side of the balcony.

the clothesline is made with a single bent metal rail. it is fully foldable, and can be stored without inconvenience. ‘sigh’ also has a three-tiered plant display. like other pieces in the collection, it extends from a single element, and can be broken down when not needed.
