A glimpse of the future of work
A place to work. Disguised as a bag.
A piece of luggage that doesn’t exist yet. Made for digital nomads who want to work first class, anywhere.
01 — Carry
Backpack on the move. Briefcase in the room.
The straps disappear. Completely. Nobody in the meeting will know how you got there. Everybody will be stunned when you open it.
02 — Open
It opens. You’re working.
A hidden mechanism lifts your laptop like magic: raised, tilted, ergonomic. Always on its own clean surface, whatever you call your office. Even if it’s just your lap.
03 — Power
Power all day. No outlet in sight.
It keeps everything you carry running, long after the last outlet is gone. A refined charging system: powerful, light and cabin-safe. Strong enough for your laptop and everything else you need.
04 — Dock
Docked on the trolley. Open at the gate.
It locks onto your trolley handle and opens right there. Suddenly the gate is your desk.
05 — Connect
Online anywhere. Waiting for no one.
Your own connection travels with you. Stronger and more convenient than your phone’s, and it never drains it.
The maker
Built for the digital nomad. At your hub or on the go.
I’ve always been a traveller, a free spirit and a founder, and fascinated by working on the go. More gadgets, better bags, a faster setup. I call myself a minimalist, yet I own about as many backpacks and pieces of travel gear as my wife owns shoes.
I built a remote company and have worked from everywhere for years: on the train, on a plane, with a table and without one. I had an office once and rarely saw the point of it. As a digital nomad I have far more balance, and more time with my family, at home in Munich or on the road. But there is a catch: when you can work anywhere, you end up working all the time, a little here, a little there. A laptop on the kitchen table is not an option.
I’m either working or I’m not.
That is why WFC exists. It is my answer for the way we work now. Work opens in two seconds and it’s gone in two seconds. At home, at the gate, on the train: the same move, the same speed. Everything has its place and everything works together. Nothing has to come out.
On the way to a meeting it isn’t a backpack but a luxurious, state-of-the-art work bag. On the road it gives you all the freedom there is.
