Honu pack systems
Honu_kea is a modular photo pack that utilizes a hard frame and soft attachment points to allow for multiple configurations. Every photographer shoots differently, using a variety of equipment, and within each individual photographer, needs vary depending on the circumstances. Honu_kea matches the inherent modularity of the SLR concept and provides storage where and when it is needed. Honu_kea’s bags are usable individually or with the frame.

DEVELOPED IN 2008 AT THE PRATT INSTITUTE FOR SUSTAINABLE DESIGN
MOBILE WORKSTATION
A tripod mount is available on both sides of the frame, allowing the user to set up the bag as a lens-changing station or with the bags upright for easy access.
LATTIX FRAME
The Lattix frame is the heart of the modular pack system. Utilizing a single, central tripod mount that is accessible from both sides, the pack is mountable in various orientations for maximum efficiency.
The Honu system includes other models of bags designed to fit the lattix frame, so with one frame acquisition one could utilize a variety of bags including multi-day packs and smaller conventional daypacks.
AIRFRAME
ergonomic frame ensures full range of movement and efficient cooling, no matter the load.
Honu is currently under development, with engineering work under-weigh on a universal linkage system. These developments are parallel to the efforts managing Beau Industries, a performance parenting gear brand founded by George Estreich
