Excellent Work Award
Title of Work: SMILE!
Name: MIYATA RIEKO / OGATA HISATO
Evaluation by Jasper Morrison
A very different idea of what a briefcase could be, soft and feminine, adaptable for different occasions. I like the combination of materials, which achieve something very modern, technical and serious in a new way.

We thought a lot on the subject of the competition, ﾒBusiness Bag,ﾓ and we came up with an idea of designing ﾒSMILE!ﾓ This work is not functional or useful but rather humorous and fun.

As you wear a suite when you go to work, you cover the inner bag with shell-shaped outer bag. Depending on the situations and your mood, you can easily change the outer bag. You can use your own imagination.

Please find your favorite colors of inner bag and outer bag. If you select a transparent sheet, you will find such a happy ﾒSMILE!ﾓ

We hope to produce more colors, textures, and prints for a variety of combinations.

Thank you very much.
