Refreshing a legacy brand
When Samsonite acquired the brand Hartmann, a luggage company started in 1877, the brand had gone from being highly sought after in the mid-century to virtually unknown to younger audiences.
I partnered with design and marketing leadership at Samsonite to envision what the new Hartmann could look and feel like, specifically targeting millennial consumers and transforming it from a luggage company to a travel lifestyle brand.
