The inspiration behind Olga was to create a plain, yet interesting laptop case that could easily change its carrying system and fasten another case if needed. This feature is particularly useful for those who need to carry multiple devices, such as a MacBook Pro and an iPad or mini iPad. The result is a unique laptop case with a special strap and fastening system.
Olga stands out from other laptop cases due to its unique properties. The special strap system allows the user to adjust the length of the strap easily. Furthermore, the case is made from environmentally friendly recycled leather, available in several colors, catering to individual preferences.
The design realization process involved selecting environmentally friendly materials, specifically recycled leather. The choice of material not only contributes to the sustainability of the product but also offers a variety of color options. The main sizes available are 13" and 15", providing flexibility for different laptop models.
The interaction with the case is straightforward. By loosening one strap and pulling from the other, the length of the strap can be adjusted. This feature, along with the ability to fasten another smaller case, makes Olga a versatile and practical choice for everyday use.
The design project started three years ago and has since received the Red Dot Award. Its latest accolade, the Golden A' Design Award, recognizes outstanding and trendsetting creations that advance art, science, design, and technology. The award is a testament to the designer's prodigy and wisdom, and Olga's significant impact on the world with its desirable characteristics.
In conclusion, Olga by Ari Korolainen is a testament to innovative design, combining functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability. Its unique features and recognition in the form of prestigious awards make it a trendsetting product in the laptop case industry.
