At first it might seem like one of those crazy one-off concepts, but the “built to resist” backpack couch from Eastpak and design stuidio Quinze & Milan might actually be a brilliant storage solution for small apartments.

“the ‘built to resist’ collection combines quinze & milan shapes with authentic eastpak product characteristics, including bags, zippers, handles, colorful strong fabrics and popular prints.

this first range will include special pocket-padded versions of quinze & milan design classics ‘club sofa 01? and ‘primary pouf 02?. various pockets are incorporated onto the seats and provide storage for your books, magazines, reading glasses, laptop, ipod, headset, remote control etc.

both pieces will be produced in exclusively numbered limited series and will be presented during milan design week 2010.”

Unfortunately, there are no exact details on pricing or quantities, but this approach to storage is something that could have mass market appeal.
