La Versatile

Adaptability of a rectangular container, the suitcase.
Although our way of travelling and our approach to travel have evolved and continue to change over the decades, the most iconic item in this field, the suitcase, has remained largely unchanged in its concept, despite significant technological advancements. It is simply a container transported from point to point, filled with clothes and various items. But have we ever questioned whether it works as effectively as it could, or considered ways to improve it? La Versatile is a suitcase concept that offers greater adaptability than the standard rectangular container, taking in consideration that more and more people, especially the younger generations, are travelling more frequently and often on short and fast trips. The suitcase is typically a mass-produced, standard, and static product. La Versatile, from its prespective, is not conceived anymore as a single body, but rather of two distinct parts: a soft and a hard component. This combination allows for better management of volume and weight, with the added flexibility of using the soft part as a backpack or bag. This makes the suitcase more dynamic and adaptable to several types of travel. Finally, the handle is designed to better suit wrist, arm, and shoulder posture, offering an alternative to the traditional, rectangular handle shape.
