Simone Giertz's Laundry Chair
Inventor Simone Giertz revealed an elegantly designed 'Laundry Chair' that solves where to put half-worn clothes while doubling as a seat — a practical, whimsical gadget for small-bedroom workflows []. The piece blends functional design with a designer’s playful touch, making it a neat idea for bedroom staging or a weekend build inspiration [].
Simone’s build video "A chair built for your half-dirty clothes" has racked up about 2.5 million views and her YouTube channel lists roughly 2.83 million subscribers [youtube.com]. Her shop, Yetch Studio, is offering a Laundry Chair Early Access pass on its product page and the site’s product list shows the reservation option priced at $1.00 for early access [yetch.studio]. In a separate short, Giertz says the crowdfunding campaign “launches March 13” and explicitly tells viewers they can reserve a spot in line for $1 via the Yetch link [youtube.com]. Fast Company reported on January 2, 2025 that Giertz prototyped the design using a giant Lazy Susan and stated she’s planning to manufacture the chair at scale [fastcompany.com]. Yetch’s storefront also lists existing products such as The Coat Hinger from $149.99 and explains a multi-stage manufacturing and quality-control process that the studio uses before moving a design to production [yetch.studio].
