Scope
Owner’s app
RIMOWA Patina — the grooved aluminium case in an airport hall

Each dent, recorded.

This app for owners of an aluminium RIMOWA case is built around what owners talk about: the dents. On a live 3D grooved aluminium case that you can turn, each dent is ringed and pinned to the trip that caused it. To log a new one, tap the shell and it presses in.

Around it, what an owner needs.

Will it fit this cabin limit, and what does the Lifetime Guarantee repair? Fit draws the front and side at scale against a limit you can edit, IATA’s guideline or the shelved 2015 Cabin OK size.

The navigation wears the dent tag.

The navigation is a row of words, and the current one wears the black tag the dents wear. The case is raymarched in WebGL to the Original Cabin’s outer size, 55 × 40 × 23 cm. Albert Sans.
