What if... >>
"What if the new wave of young professionals were homeless?
"Millennials are the first generation to see the world through an internet lens, giving them a shared, global culture and greater desire of distant locations from a young age."
-The Observer
Observations >>
Due to the pandemic, the majority of the world's professional affairs moved onto a virtual platform. Telecommuting has changed our entire workflow, and will greatly influence our work habits moving toward the future.
2020_Telecommuting
Due to limited freedom, life priorities have shifted. Once free, we are going out to explore
a whole new world.
Sense of Freedom
Because of our seamless integration of digital tools and newfound freedom, intentional co-living spaces and temporary micro-living spaces facilitate openness and collaboration, social networking, and the sharing economy.
Openness & Collaboration
Millennials + Pandemic Positive = Modern Nomads
The new class of young professionals that work on the go.
The Capsule Pack consists of a two-part system. The modular system is designed to be as flexible as your schedule to support all of your adventures whether it's a year-round trip or a weekend away.
Capsule Pack
Working on the go means professionals can take short trips between their longer travel periods. The sling bag can be detached and adequately stores essentials for a short time away.
Sling Bag
Fleece-lined laptop/tablet sleeve.
Lower pocket for necessary clothing during short trips.
Upper pocket for valuables, electronic accessories, and toiletries.
Concept >>
During a nomad's longer travels, the two
bags connect into one to provide enough
storage for all necessities needed to curate
a comfortable "home base". Reinforced by
highly-durable cobra buckles to ensure the
two are inseparable.
Home Base
