We've seen the picture storage technique with shoes, but this Ikea hacker has put the idea to use in perhaps a more intuitive way, with faces.

AleXX, from Munich, Germany, has organized the landing strip with family members' faces. We think the descending height is a pretty cute feature. Check out his Flickr set here.

Cute, but those lower hooks are going to need to be moved up in no time. Kids grow fast.
This is a fun idea...but I'm sorry, "landing strip" has a different connotation in certain circles. I think "mud room organization" would have covered it nicely.

Where is that fabulous bench/trunk from?

It's a cute design, to be sure. I just clearly need to stop hanging out in the gutters (with fishgirl, apparently).
Cute - only really works with children though.
Plus, you do realize you are going to have to either remove the bench or move up the hooks in time? The children are going to get bigger which means longer jackets.
