Whilst living in London, French designer Gaspard Tiné-Berès (naturally) felt cold. Instead of paying outrageous heating costs, he decided to create some locally sourced and easy to make slippers. The result was the Lasso. Lasso slippers are crafted from felt and come flat-packed. They're easy to assemble so that the whole family can mold their own. The lace even comes available in several color choices. Gaspard and his creative partner Ruben Valensi are trying to make their dream come true by raising money on Kickstarter. So help them!

If you have an apartment that is too small to fit clothes in, you probably also don't have too many clothes. This minimal rack condemns coat-shoe segregation and allows you to keep all manner of things by the door. The elegant design is freestanding and moveable, so if you're running late and can't choose what to wear, you can pick up the rack and take options to work. It has a fold down space for hanging things, as you can see, and unless you knock it over in a drunken madness, it will do nothing but improve your life. Designed by Alexander Schmied.
