Tent Jacket
This hobo-chic jacket designed by Justin Gargasz easily unfolds into a tent (pictured above), thus saving you tons of luggage space.
Termed the “vessel” by its designer, the jacket can also be transformed into a sling sack which can be used as a daypack.
According to Gargasz,
Individuals feel the need to escape interactions in their environment everyday.
Whether it be interactions with excessive technology or other people, this psychological and physical need to get away is where I began my investigation.
A physical as well as psychological escape is achieved when the user has the option to efficiently get away from inside of building and come back when ever they choose. I focused on expandable clothing for concept exploration.
