Om Pulse Penna

Pulse är en penna designad som både ett skrivverktyg och ett skulpturalt objekt. Formen är inspirerad av molnets lugna gestalt och tycks sväva. Generativa mönster hämtade från naturen skapar biomorfa strukturer på ytan. Pulse tillverkas genom gjutning med förlorat vax, en metod som återger fina organiska detaljer. Pennan kan gjutas i aluminium, silver, brons eller guld, med polerad eller borstad finish. Höjden är 160 mm och diametern är 13,5 mm. Metallbearbetningen tillför djup, textur och en taktil kvalitet till ett välbekant vardagsföremål.

Bakom designen

Presskit

Erkännanden, teammedlemmar och tekniska detaljer tillhandahållna av designern.

Unika egenskaper: This project explores the potential of generative patterns inspired by nature, transforming them into biomorphic structures that enhance both the visual and functional qualities of the product. By experimenting with a variety of metal finishing techniques, the design gains depth, texture, and subtle reflection, turning a simple object into a tactile and visual experience. The process also offered valuable insight into the craftsmanship of metal finishing and plating, bridging digital design with traditional material processes.
Dimensioner & förpackning: Pen Height: 160 mm
Pen Diameter: 13.5 mm
Materials: Cast in aluminum, silver, bronze, or gold (via lost wax method)
Finish: Polished or brushed metal options
Taggar: Floating Pen, Sculptural Object, Biomorphic Design, Generative Pattern, Everyday Object, Nature-Inspired, Minimal Design, Tactile Experience, Functional Sculpture, Craftsmanship, Artistic Tool
Produktionsteknik: The piece is crafted using the lost wax method (investment casting), allowing for precise reproduction of organic, detailed forms. It can be cast in a range of metals, including aluminum, silver, bronze, and even real gold offering versatility in both finish and value. This traditional technique brings a refined, timeless quality to a contemporary design.
Designutmaning: The challenge was to redesign a familiar object, the pen. into a sculptural, functional piece. Inspired by nature, the biomorphic form required careful balance between aesthetics and ergonomics. Lost wax casting was chosen to capture detail, but limited studio access during early 2022 required adaptability and hands-on experimentation. This process deepened the understanding of material, craft, and emotional design.
Forskning: This project explores the balance between everyday function and sculptural form by reimagining the pen as a minimal, floating object inspired by the elegance of a cloud. Biomorphic patterns and surface treatments enhance its tactile and visual quality. Crafted through lost wax casting in aluminum, silver, bronze, and gold, Pulse blends traditional metalwork with contemporary design to create a writing tool that invites interaction and reflection.
Inspiration: Pulse is a floating pen, inspired by the quiet grace of a cloud. It brings new life to an everyday object that has remained unchanged for years. Light, calm, and balanced, it invites a moment of pause in a busy day. Each detail was shaped to feel natural, clear, and easy to use a small object made with care, to feel just right in your hand and your space.
Projektlängd: The project began in January 2022 in Los Angeles and was completed in February 2023. It started as an exploration of surface treatments that could transform the pen from a simple writing instrument into a sculptural object. This artistic approach guided the design process from concept to completion
Arbetsflöde: Pulse functions as a writing tool, but invites interaction as a sculptural object. Its form encourages touch, exploration, and visual appreciation even when not in use. The unique surface treatments add depth and texture, creating a tactile experience that goes beyond writing. More than a pen, it becomes a moment of pause and beauty on your desk.
