Fantastic Industrial Design Student Work: This Modernist Pen

I desperately want to touch this simple, clean pen design by Derel Shell, a final-year ID student at Purdue University.

I love the facet, the O/I slider, the indication of ink color and the size indicator.

While it doesn’t have a clip, if this pen were real and I owned one, I wouldn’t carry it around; this would be my desk pen and would either live in the central drawer or in the can in front of me.

The pen would be made, Shell says, from recycled aluminum.
