Everyday Carry

Accessory Design, Fabrication

Everyday Carry explores my relationship with organization through surrealist bag designs. These bags reflect on how appearances can be misaligned with internal experiences – what looks composed on the outside may conceal inner disarray, and vice versa.

Clear vinyl windows in front of fabric-printed contents create a trompe l'oeil effect of seeing into a highly disorganized bag at all times. The contents, including items like cutlery and office supplies, amplify this deceptive clutter to a comedic degree.


The "Desk Job Tote" is fully lined and features a 15" laptop holder and an exterior pocket on the inner side of the bag making it ideal for phones.




The "Foodie Purse" is fully lined with a magnetic snap closure for the flap and multi-compartment inner pockets.



Both bags staged during exhibition event.
