the shape of this circular trolley isn’t a good solution. it is unefficent,there is a bad ratio between the inner volume and the external one.
A circular shape is difficult to store in the most of luggage vans.

BAD. circles are the worst type of storage versus using a solution involving a square shape……its quite a simple fix.

What about a regular-kind trolley with a caterpillar track around it?

Kind of want to see that one.

So whatever to using those granny trolley

It is great to think out of the box (square luggages). That is a great idea and very innovative.

I love it. It is very unique and I would love to have a rolling bag. It would works great on stairs too.

Cool!I like it

This totally awesome. I think the circle is a fine form as well especially since clothes will fill any space. I would like to see how this could be extended however… You have a nice big wheel, can we put something on top? Perhaps a garment bag or some kind of rack where I can strap my laptop bag?

As should be quite obvious the circular shape is really inefficient for storage: the volume space available for storage is much lesser than the volume occupied by the container. at the same time storing the container for transport (like in overhead bins on a airplane) can be really difficult. And consider the fact that the whole structure also looks quite heavy compared with the space available for storage.

Sometimes the fact that all things looks more or less the same doesn’t mean lack of imagination but that evolution lead to the best possible shape for a given function. The fact that you don’t see 3 o 5 legged mammals doesn’t imply lack of creativity on nature’s side

HahahaHA!

I have a great story for this one! OK. So I was in studio3, Transport, and Advanced Manufacturing Materials that quarter, and a fellow classmate – who will remain unnamed – walks in with a survey for his Intro to I.D. class – he was a senior… So anyway intro’s project was designing a tool box for ID students. I filled out the survey, and at the bottom of the sheet was a space for other thoughts or ideas. Immediately what popped into my head was a round tool box that one could either pull behind by hand or by bike. So then I did four really rough, tiny sketches in the other space. One thing my design had that this one does not is a built-in tripod for easy access in the shop. The funniest part was that the guy took the sketches, scanned them, and presented the idea! He gave me the credit for the idea, of course. I had the same teacher for intro, and when he heard whose idea it was he let the guy do the round, rolling toolbox! his final model didn’t look nearly this good.

good solution!

Looks good but bad design that is not real world tested. Needs fender for spray – think of the bike fenders that cover the rear wheels. Also, I’m sure everyone has rolled their carry ons through some muck (bathrooms, dog poo). Why would you want it all over you bag?

Good luck getting that through airport security

This is a terrible idea.

Lets say you are walking up some stairs and lose your grip on a regular rolling bag. Since it basically acts like a ratchet, the bag stops and your belongings are safe. In the worst case, it tumbles down the stairs and comes to a stop at the bottom.

This bag would race down the stairs, building up speed until it collides with the nearest old lady, instantly dissolving her into a cloud of red mist from the impact; it would then fly into traffic where it will either cause serious (expensive) damage to some poor bastard’s car, or explode and spew your clothes, toiletries and contraband all over.

Or you drag it through a puddle and have to run to catch your plane. The giant wheels will spin off water, mud, and human filth onto anything nearby, especially you since you’re directly in front of it.

Or lets say it bounces loose out of a airport luggage transport. Then it rolls away onto the tarmac, where it:
a) gets sucked into a jet engine
b) crosses the takeoff path of a 747, causing it to swerve, brake, or roll over your luggage.
c) is shot up by department of homeland absurdity goons because they mistake it for some crazy techno-robot bomb
d) becomes the “puck” for an impromptu game of luggage transport tractor tarmac hockey.
e) keeps rolling forever, on to the great baggage carousel in the sky.

Pass.

Looks nice… but for me personally, the optimal sollution would be to put larger wheels on my current bag.

But this design if far more interesting and cute… only problem is it won’t fit all my stuff.

I think it looks great and could work well, but I don’t think I can get down with the round form factor. My clothes fold up rectangularly.

won’t the capacity be too small

clothes fold into neat rectangles, immideatly nulling the usefullness of his desgin. If you want to carry around A huge can of SPAM though, now that’s another thing all together.

Very amazing design.

these would be good for Pilots or stewards. you know when we go to airports, we see pilots and stewards pulling strollers, this might be exact for them.

I think people here are missing the point.
I don’t think this bag was made to be the most efficient way to pack your luggage…. its about style.

Too bulky and awkward looking. If it’s meant to be about style, some style should be injected into it. Too little storage space compared to overall size. If one side had heavy objects it would be really hard to keep balanced on a bumby surface.
