Oftentimes you see concept cars or electronics, but this interesting bag is a Louis Vuitton concept purse. Named the Structural Bag, this looks more like a work of art then a functional carryall.
Samal Design came up with this Louis Vuitton concept purse. The minimalistic cage is made of brown leather strips that intertwine to form the recognizable shape of the popular LV Alma bag. While the Structural Bag is beautiful and interesting to look at, I highly doubt LV will consider putting something like this into production.
