Living out of a suitcase is a notoriously uncomfortable experience that avid travelers simply have to deal with, but the 'Flightable Closet' concept is intended to help offer an effective solution.
Conceptualized by Yao Pan, the suitcase design is focused on transforming the luggage into a functional closet upon arrival at a destination. This is achieved with a series of shelves inside as well as an extendable pole for handing up garments.
