ODD SIZE BAGGAGEOdd Size Baggage is a series of three suitcases: a carry-on, a piece of hand luggage, and a check-in suitcase; the types a person typically travels with. These pieces unfold into furniture that reflects both the pursuit of happiness and tranquility, and the restless urge for self-optimization. Oversized luggage represents the burden a person generally carries with them, concerns that go beyond the ordinary and take on unusual forms. The suitcase thus becomes a symbol of departure. It is a companion in the search, in the checks at the departure gate, and in everyday life. It must comply with specific dimensions and weights, meeting certain requirements in order to pass as normal luggage. If it falls outside these parameters, it is considered “odd size baggage.”
