About Onyx حقيبة ظهر

التصميم متعدد الوظائف المدمج في شكل واضح وبسيط هو ما يجعل حقيبة الظهر أونيكس فريدة وخالدة. أونيكس مصنوعة باحترافية من الجلد الناعم وخالية من أي تفاصيل ثقيلة إضافية. في وسط الهيكل المستطيل يوجد سحاب يمتد على طول حقيبة الظهر بالكامل. تم وضع مقبضين قابلين للتعديل بشكل استراتيجي ويمكن قلبهما بحيث يواجه السحاب ظهر الشخص الذي يرتديها. بهذه الطريقة يصبح المدخل إلى حقيبة الظهر مخفياً ومحمياً. تتحول حقيبة الظهر إلى كهف صغير آمن ومحمي.

Production Technology
In production we put our biggest efforts into creating as little waste as possible, 0% is our goal. That is why cut has to be thought thru very carefully. Onyx cut is simple: two rectangular pieces for the shell, two long and one short stripe for the handles. Shell is padded with heavy cotton lining which has two small pockets. All these pieces are flexible and can easily be fit into the material so there is almost no waste. Onyx comes in real leather or eco, vegan leather version.
Design Challenge
I had an idea what the backpack should look like, I also knew how I want to make it multifunctional. It had to be practical and also look nice. Outside features were as equally important as inside performances and durability. Designing and prototype production was first challenge. Next challenge I faced was finding high quality leather, and last one was finding small family production willing to produce it. When all those challenges were met and successfully fulfilled, Onyx was ready for public.
Research
Multifunctional, minimal design that gives more than eye can see is easily adapted into many styles. By removing all unnecessary details, what we have left is pure, simple design with accent on the raw material. I can choose if I want to make the big zipper visible and part of the design or I can hide it and leave only material and connecting stich to be seen. This is not just a visual decision it is also the one regarding safety of my belongings.
Inspiration
During everyday comute on public transport or while traveling abroad, I was often faced with safety of personal belongings. Backpack is always my first choice regarding the type of bag I carry around. It keeps my hands free, it is practical, it sits carefree on my back. Which is also a problem because its opening is out of my sight. That is how the idea of "hidden" zipper came to my mind. And it had to be packed into stylish, minimal design which adapts easily into many fashion styles.
Project Duration
The project started June 2024 and was finalised in July 2024, in Cakovec, Croatia.
Operation Flow
Multifunctional designs have always been my passion, and when they are supported by high quality materials and made in nature and human friendly environment, they become eternal. They live forever. Onyx is not only a backpack, it is also a safe little cave for all our daily necessities. He is our loyal companion in everyday life from work to casual stroll, from sightseeing to evening in the club. Onyx is not just a bag, it is important and precious addition to our lifestyle.
