Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) today announced a collaboration with MEDIUM Design Group to deliver the ultimate messenger bag for creative and design professionals. This must-have bag has multiple compartments that hold all accessories and technology necessities designers use everyday. The limited-edition bags will be sold exclusively at Barneys New York and online at adobe.mediumdesigngroup.com, beginning in November 2005 for a suggested retail price of US$250. Customers will be able to pre-order the Adobe/MEDIUM Messenger Bag beginning today.
“The messenger bag symbolizes a concerted effort between MEDIUM and Adobe to forge a union of design and technology,” said Scott Milden, Founder, MEDIUM Design Group. “From concept to creation, the product embodies the essence of creativity while satisfying the functional needs of designers.”
Commissioned by Adobe and crafted by MEDIUM, the co-branded bag unites two companies that share a passion for design excellence. The carryall balances form and functionality with style and elegance. Produced in striking black leather and outlined in red stitching, it’s designed to hold a 17-inch laptop, folders, PDAs, keys and cell phone. MP3 players fit perfectly in their own pockets, which include specially designed buttonholes and hooks, allowing users to run headphone cables outside the bag. A roll-top closure and unique rain cover protect valuables from the elements and safeguard creatives’ must-have items.
The bag was designed from beginning to end using Adobe® Creative Suite 2 software, including Adobe Photoshop® CS2, Adobe InDesign® CS2, Adobe Illustrator® CS2, Adobe GoLive® CS2 and Adobe Acrobat® 7.0 Professional.
