German luxury brand MCM has unveiled a collection of hi-tech backpacks and bags
inspired by space. The Bionic Series has a futuristic aesthetic,
seeking to fuse heritage-inspired craftsmanship traditions with avant-garde
designs. The Autumn/Winter 2015 series takes a visual cue from the light surface panels assembled over a
spaceship’s exterior and the blueprints developed for a spacecraft’s
interior. Featuring a linear pattern,
the industrial design reinvents MCM’s
signature M motif.

Custom-made tech materials
Celebrating the collection, men’s style magazine L’Officiel
Hommes has created a sequence of four illustrations depicting the essence of the
design. The mechanistic illustrations present each item in motion within a
thrilling action-packed animated sequence.
The bag collection features angular veneers
and innovative materials, and is constructed with VOC-protected (Volatile
Organic Compounds) and toxic-free elements. Crafted with
breathable, custom-made tech materials, the collection features interior padding
and a glossy, water-resistant exterior for "high-resistance and
high-fashion", the brand said. The machine-like design is available in black, gold and silver colour options.
