For those travellers who manage not to stuff their suitcases completely full, the Air Pack luggage system would come in handy on all sorts of trips. Designed by Kim Junsik, this Red Dot Design Award-winning bag facilitates a comforting, protective way to transport your things, be it as carry-on or checked baggage on an airplane.
The hard shell exterior of the wheeled suitcase absorbs the impact of any knocks or bumps. On the inside, air bags are inflated to tightly but gently press all contents together, giving them a buffer should the Air Pack be dropped –– and nothing would shift an inch. The easily activated system discourages overpacking for the sake of keeping garments from getting tossed around and wrinkled; meanwhile, cushioning fragile items such as computers and cameras. Finally, the Air Pack makes it easier for tourists to ensure that their precious souvenirs are kept intact.
