Send us a text

Overview:
One of the hardest achievements in design is maintaining form and function. A maker who is capable of doing both is truly gifted. This is where our guest Andrea Perici comes in. His company Arch Industries makes custom packs that will leave you wanting for nothing.
We got to partner with Andrea to create a custom pack. Starting with a new pattern on X-Pac® V15 in a new colorway. Then we turned the rest over to Andrea for the implementation.
Key Takeaways:

• How he allows his past career to influence design
• What he looks for in a color palette
• Why his 3-panel bottom gusset creates a more ergonomic design
• What it looks like to design a custom pack with Andrea
