“Enduring, not ultimate form”: from “Industrieform” to Red Dot (1980 - 1997)
Nere PP Luggage
BLOND designed a suitcase for Nere that mitigates cracking issues in hard-shell luggage. Using injection moulded recyclable Polypropylene, a scalloped pattern is applied for structural integrity and reduced weight. The pattern also enhances visual appeal and brand exposure with high-fidelity gloss and matte finishes. Components like custom TSA locks complement the design. The 100% recycled lining underscores the eco-friendly approach.
