About Taste Connnection X Primary Function: Saqueta multifoncionala

Taste Connection X es una saqueta multifoncionala que se pòt utilizar coma saquet d'esquina, coma saqueta de portaire o dins una forma de bagatge dobèrt. La saqueta es facha de PVC impermeable estampat amb un motiu que mescla los logos de las marcas popularas de tè a bombolhas de Taïwan. Cada pèça es talhada a l'azard dins un ròtle cobèrt de ratjas coloridas, doncas cap de saqueta pòrta pas la meteissa composicion de colors. La forma es creada per plegatge, sens talhaduras suplementàrias, e una corrèja de coton ajustabla amb un estampatge personalizat definís cada mòde. Lo design fonciona tanben coma un sovenir de las scènas de carrièra de Taipei.

Production Technology
We use waterproof PVC(high quality synthetic leather) as material which passed SGS exam.

The cotton strap is custom-made with our design print. With adjustable strap, the bag can be turn into different forms.
Design Challenge
In order to ensure no two bags have identical print composition but still stylish, we have to carefully choose the area to be shaped into 3-D form.
Research
Our core brand value is to discover all the high potential daily materials and turn them into valuable design goods. Starting from Taipei, for the long run, we plan to work with cities from all over the world whereby each city images and locally unique materials can be discerned and applied, therefore cultural economies can be cultivated.
Inspiration
The bubble tea drinks started from Taiwan and now have been well-received globally. Taipei street scene is largely made up of colorful signs and waterproof canopy. Combined with these two signature elements from Taiwanese daily surroundings, the design is not only a stylish bag but also a souvenir best presents where it comes from.
