Hand bag made out of fabric and leather, which allows a constant reconfiguration to attend the changing needs of each customer.
The hand bag works as a modular system that incorporates or desincorporates its components, by a simple mechanism made out of buttons and strips of velcro. Such components could be used in different colors, giving the possibility to differentiate the contents in each one.
These are the different components:
-Big size component: it can carry a laptop computer, books, magazines and/or documents. It includes leather strap (detachable) and handles, a small interior pocket and space to keep two pens.
-Medium size component: half size of the big component, it can carry books, notebooks and small documents. It can use the same detachable leather strap and has a small interior pocket and space to keep two pens.
-Long component: it has the size of two long modules, and allows to carry computer cables, electronic accessories, etc.
-Small component: it is a single module that can keep a mobile, ipod, digital camera, headphones, lentes, sweets, chewing gum, etc.
-Hanging component: it is a single module that can hang a sweater, jacket, scarf, etc.
This system brings flexibility to the client, by means of a simple and practical, yet beautiful and well crafted bag.
