TheBétaVersion and Dombon-a-Tanya's Box Couture Collection is so cool I can’t wait to see it on the streets of Budapest, where the Hungarian accessories brand is from.

The Box Couture accessories collection consists of a line of handbags, backpacks and messenger bags of the most unusual material; the pieces are made of [fine wood and small leather details](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/filament-collection).

The collection has a minimalist, simple wooden bag for everyone in the family. Modern Dads can carry around their high-tech gadgets in a [wooden computer case](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electronic-handbags) (with additional slip-in opening for the smart phone); Moms might go to the park at lunch time carrying a compact, functional, wooden picnic box with all the picnic apparel inside. Young teenagers can bring along the essentials in cute [wooden messenger bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bask-bag) and small children can hide all their school stuffs in an old-school wooden back pack by TheBétaVersion and Dombon-a-Tanya.
