“Great design is achieved by those who know what to subtract and what to retain.” I can find no better way to capture the essence of Oppermann’s Surfaces Collection, than this quote. Whether it is their briefcase or the weekend bag, both of them redefine relaxed silhouettes. This particular collection focuses on duality of surfaces and conforms to the ethos of Swedish minimalism along with London styling. The bags use Tumbled leather sourced from Tärnsjö Garveri in Sweden and a smooth trim leather from Italy that deliver sharp contrast of textures. What we love is the attention to detail, for example the handle and trim endings receding underneath the outer panels, hence layers and surfaces are explored with clever design. The Surfaces collection’s briefcase – the Bolton, is tad larger than the average briefcase or laptop bag, The bag packs in a 15″ laptop, a pile of books, documents and other daily gadgets. Designed to house a single main compartment, two slip-pockets on the side for a laptop and tablet each, as well as a zipped pocket, what we love is the use of Raccagni Super R Titanium Finish zippers that have been individually brushed and polished.
