Form follows function.
I believe that a good design is a useful design and that if a designer can create something that excels in performance and they can make it aesthetically pleasing they have succeeded in their job as the designer.
The product I have chosen for my post is in my short list of many designs that all share this philosophy of form following function.
The Boblbee, Megalopolis Aero is the epitome of combining these two worlds of function and form in that it is a backpack designed to get the job done in a handful of environments and activities. This bag is primarily geared towards motorcycle riders, skiers', push bike riders and general active applications such as jogging etc.
The Megalopolis aero sports an injection molded ABS shell that protects your gear from external knocks and keeps your laptop dry in those horizontal rainy days! The inner lining has plenty of sleeves that fir your notebooks or tools for bike riding perfectly and not to mention it has an industry graded ergonomic back brace which keeps the bulk of the weight above your lumbar region of the spine to save your back on bumpy terrain on your bike or just carrying loads to and from uni.
As an owner of this bag I can vouch for its usefulness in its applications and I have fallen in love with this product and the company's ideals and designs of their bags. (Boblbee, Sweden)
Form > Function… However a good designer can make anything look good :D
