Dear anonymous

We've already known the lighting "THREE".
Thank you.

the merit of the 48 lamp is to offer a totally new way to see/ use common things like coat hangers- and that's just great - we gotta recycle the way we see the things;see second life- is that real life or is that just fantasy?

This is so boring. It does not recycle as you clearly have to purchase 48 hangers to make the product. This is tired thoughts and uninspired thinking. pass on by.

Dear Damian

Thank you for your comment.

"48" is not only recycle product but also new product.

White color "48" is recycle product.

White hanger is general.
In these days, people usually send their clothes to the cleaner's.
When people get the clothes back from the cleaners, the "Hangers" are coming with them.
Because people don’t want to keep more hangers than they need, they dump them out after all.
We think that the hangers are too good to use. So we suggest how to reuse the hangers in " 48 of 101"

But Other Color "48" is a new product.

May we have questions?

What is inspired thinking?
What is tired thoughts?
inspired thinking, tired thought....
They are abstract words.

Individuals have different Ideas and standards of judgement.
What is your logic for criticism?
