"I designed this bag in the same way I designed everything else, so largely based on right angles, but perhaps a little more emotionally, more personally. Designing a handbag is undoubtedly different to designing a Braun stereo system, but I applied the same principles. It had to be functional, visually durable, and very aesthetic. Less, but better."
"The design is both a love letter to Ingeborg and an apt illustration of his 'Ten Principles for Good Design' - especially its praise for products that are innovative, honest, long-lasting."
The 931 handbag by TSATSAS remains true to its original design, introduced in 1963 by Dieter Rams, with the addition of a new burgundy color. The bag is crafted by TSATSAS artisans in Offenbach am Main, using leather from a Swedish tannery that adheres to high standards. Rams emphasized the importance of functionality and aesthetics in design, applying his principles to the handbag. The latest iteration keeps the design fresh while honoring Rams' legacy and his personal connection to the piece through his wife, Ingeborg Kracht.
