The 'Playing By Heart' Laptop Briefcase by Zhang Shouze Can Take a Beating

— March 21, 2010 — Art & Design
Having a laptop is a great thing but transporting it can be a little nerve-wracking at times. They aren’t always the toughest of machines, and the bags that are offered don’t help much either. Well, what if you had a laptop that was so durable it actually doubled as a case? Designer Zhang Shouze has played with that idea and has come up with the Playing By Heart Laptop Briefcase.

The Playing By Heart Laptop Briefcase is an idea I could see being bought up by many of the major computer companies. It has a fairly simple design and multi-functional capabilities, as seen in the pictures above.
