Hung-Ming Chen and Chen-Yen Wei, founders of the Stockholm design studio Afteroom AB, are out to reinvent the wheel, or at least something like it. Their Q hook is a new twist on the S hook, longstanding storage staple of kitchen and closet, but not without its faults. "When you grab stuff from an S hook, the hook is often dislodged in the process," they point out. "With the addition of a loop, the S hook becomes a more stable storage solution."
