UK designer Michael Young’s new conceptual designs for the frequent traveler have only one thing all across it – ‘Convenience’. Suitably titled VOYAGE, it is made of stainless steel and the black ABS passport holder simply has space for all the necessary documents, and also has room for pen and credit cards.
