Briefly Speaking: The New Multitaskers
The case may still be called a “brief,” but not its tasks. Today’s business case — whether a backpack, messenger, tote or case in style and structure — is a serious multi-tasker, a confident organizer capable of keeping up with its carrier. Boardroom denizens, road warriors, up-and-comers, all-work-and-no-play types and their counterparts — can count on these cases to be business-ready. Shown is the Fearless from ful, the very embodiment of a multitasking brief.

Photographed at the nation’s tallest green building, the Comcast Center in downtown Philadelphia is the “canvas” for “Humanity in Motion” by world-renowned artist Jonathan Borofsky, an art piece comprising 10 walkways created out of stainless steel and 12 figures made of fiberglass and Kevlar. Borofsky’s piece expands on the sculptural tradition in the City of Brotherly Love of creating figurative works that are both portrait-like and symbolic, honoring the richness of the urban community. The building features the 120-foot-high glass-enclosed Winter Garden with lobby sculptures also created by Borofsky.
Special thanks to Eileen S. Dolente of Comcast and Jim Birch of Liberty Properties Trust.
