NOMADBACKPACK DESIGN

CHALLENGE

Work one-on-one with a client to design and deliver a working backpack prototype, focusing on human-factored design, client's needs and preferences.

RAPHY CONRAD

Raphy is in the 96th percentile for his height, measuring just under 6'3", this makes it harder for him to find backpacks that fit him comfortably and still meet his needs.
