We and the world are in a state of constant movement, we travel, and, depending on the reason for the change of location, there are different objects we take with us, all our belongings or only the bare necessities, on the run, on vacation, on the way to work or to a party. In this project we developed new concepts for bags of different formats for individually defined contexts and contents.
From small to big, from broad to slim, from sports to everyday life, from work to vacation – simply put an all-rounder. Completely gender neutral, anyone can wear the Parabag. Straps give the parachute silk its distinct form, and they connect, loosen and expand the volume of the bag in three easy steps.
