some designs just scare me

Talking about product design. I have never been a fan of this Alexander Mc Queen suitcase design for Samsonite and for some reason it gives me the creeps. I could not imagine myself pulling this off the luggage belt inside an airport or walk through a hotel lobby unless i am a well-known celebrity surgeon or specialist for heart transplants. I like the idea of biomimicry, but the anatomy of a human chest for a suitcase ? Frankly - I found this thing not just odd, but outright ugly.

  1. Almost feels like the suitcase (oops can I call it that? How declasse!) when opened will reveal some OCD psychopath's glistening carving tools...
