The Leader of the Pack
In December 2000, during a meeting at the office of Smart Design in
Manhattan, Richard Krulik, the CEO of luggage manufacturer Briggs
& Riley was trying to explain his company's ethos to the design
firm. Grabbing a tote bag, Krulik threw it to the ground and began
to stomp on it. "This thing can withstand 500 pounds of pressure.
Really, this is a beautiful product! It's like nothing else out there!"
The designers [Smart Design] devised a novel identity system of
icons and photographs for the hangtags...and the new labeling was
a hit. Since [inception] the number of stores carrying its products
has nearly doubled.
