A Rolling Carry-On Designed to be Used Like a Dresser

Most of the newfangled luggage designs we’ve seen lately focus on the UX during transit: How does it perform on-the-go? But little design attention is paid to how we interact with suitcases once we’re at the destination. When I’m staying in a hotel, I usually use my rolling carry-on like an inconveniently-deep box, leaving it open and dressing out of it. This is less than ideal, but unpacking my suitcase into the hotel’s drawers seems somehow weird.

The Carry-On Closet 2.0 is a suitcase designed to double as the dresser at your destination. At first it seemed kooky to me, but the more I thought about it, the more I think I’d use this as intended. Employing the extended handle as the suspension frame is a clever trick:

This most recent version of the design has been successfully crowdfunded, but apparently can still be pre-ordered here. They’re also still selling their 1.0 version of the design here.
