Sleek Coat Rack Design

I'm liking this coatcrack design from Desu Design, though I'm always inclined towards seeing it made of wood something rich and contrasting like oak/ maple and cherry/ mahogany).

"During the coat-less summer months the Symbol hangs as a purely aesthetic piece, as the hooks lay flat and belie their function. When needed, the hooks pull smoothly out to help you organize your stuff. The Symbol Coat Rack is 1.5" deep with the hooks up, and 4.25" when the hooks are flipped down"

Wimpy's Braille Burgers

I've written about Braille tattoos, but never Braille food.  Here, Wimpy's burger chain is making Braille hamburger buns using sesame seed to promote their Braille menus.
From the video's description:
"Wimpy wanted to let visually impaired people know that they offered braille menus in all of their restaurants. To spread the word we built braille burgers that blind people could actually read. With the help of skilled chefs we took sesame seeds and meticulously placed them on burger buns so that the seeds formed braille."
