Design Interview about Toba Tank Bag for Helmet
The inspiration comes from a personal need, the idea of finding that nothing similar on the market had been done, the principle of managing the jet helmet in comfort giving it a specific function when it is not worn
Create something that wasn't there and get a concrete result from an idea
We see this victory as the beginning of an extraordinary adventure. We hope that the award gives us the visibility we need to create new relationships, new synergies, reinforce the creativity of Made in Italy, work hard
I can't quantify the time but certainly not much and I'm still working
I pursued an inspiration
The project was produced by a textile company and our brand has been registered. For now the costs have been borne by us and we have no preclusions over the future. Any offers or collaborative proposals will be evaluated
A personal need and the desire to get involved
The clothing. The inspiration from the outside comes from an outerwear designer who introduced me to the world of eco-sustainability
The customer who wants to stand out with a fashion solution, smart, attentive to details, lover of accessories and who does not give up on comfort and safety
The toba is a triptych.
A single object that becomes a handbag, a shoulder strap or a backpack
A single object that becomes a handbag, a shoulder strap or a backpack
We wanted to find a name that is easy to remember and immediate, a catchy sound while maintaining the identities important for us.
To is Turin (our city) Ba is Barcelona (the city of the heart and the destination of our travels for reasons of friendship)
Tank emphasizes the concept of container, the primary function of design

Lover, paper, pensil, intuition
The unique aspect of the design is undoubtedly its zipper of deliberately important dimensions which gives personality to the bag
I worked with people with specialized technical skills who gave me advice on some technical aspects of the product
I don't know exactly what you mean about technology. The realization of the product was made with the transformation technology of polymer of plastic into yarn for fabrics and laser cutting for the shape
After drawing the project, I searched into the market for a similar product in appearance and with the same functions and I availed myself of the collaboration of professionals.
The availability of recycled and recovered tissues was not easy. The greatest difficulty was certainly to sew a zipper so important
I remember the moment very well. We were in Barcelona and went to the home of an artist friend who exposed the prize poster about the competition in his studio. He told us his adventure and we decided to try it too
I was used to working alone and I learned to work in a team
I thank my collaborator Emanuela Zaniboni who worked a lot on the Design Award platform and that plays a fundamental role in the growth of the Toba
