A Check and Carry-on for Serious Travelers

airpack_01

These 2 pieces of luggage, both winners of the 2015 Red Dot Concept Award, are distinct in functionality but both aim to make the lives of travelers easy!

The first, called Air Pack (pictured top), utilizes an ingenious internal air bag inflation system to secure items inside. Because packed belongings can shift during travel, they often are susceptible to breaking or damage. The air bags absorb external shock and set your items firmly in place so when you reopen your bag they’re exactly where you left them!

The other, named the Waiting Companion (pictured bottom), makes for a perfect carry-on. While there may be plenty of seating at airports or train stations, tables and surfaces are few and far between. The design features a built-in board where you can conveniently enjoy a meal and beverages, work from a laptop, or enjoy a good book!

Shower to Tub in Seconds!

The age of the micro-living is upon us and that means it’s time to get smart with space saving! The Inflatable Bathtub is one concept that maximizes micro-bathrooms with an innovative way to switch between shower and tub. With the press of a button, users can switch between their preferred method of bathing. In seconds, the unit expands to the size of a regular bathtub. When more space is needed, the unit can be left in “storage mode” in which users can operate the water controls to shower and enjoy a larger feeling bathroom!

The Inflatable Bathtub is a 2015 Red Dot Award : Design Concept winner.

Designer: Zhou Peng, Dai ChangFu, & Liu ShuFu
