Concept and Sketch


I'm working diligently on concepts and sketches for my interview with the manufacturer and for sampling & production. I've stored the image and details of the bag in my head for over a year, so it is nice to finally put them down on paper. Throughout the design process, I keep in mind that the contents should be what's heavy, not the bag itself.

I'm also putting together a concept board which captures the spirit of the brand; the drivers are the somewhat conflicting industrial revolution and recent environmental revolution. atelier nunu will reference the longevity of past industrial equipment through its durability and choice of materials, while leveraging new technology in textiles & leathers to minimize its impact on the environment.
