Formwork Pencil Cup
Formwork Pencil Cup
As their book Usefulness in Small Things attests, Hecht and Colin take great pleasure in everyday items, and few items are more everyday than the lowly pencil. In providing a place for these analogue writing instruments, the designers thoughtfully included a ledge for smaller items too, some certainly digital, such as a memory stick.
The entire family
Formwork stackable desktop storage designed by Sam Hecht and Kim Colin helps you bring order to your papers, tools and artefacts. With shapes and sizes that were rigorously considered to relate an intuitive sense of utility, the accessories may be stacked and combined in any way you see fit.
A variety of forms for a versatile workspace
Balancing meticulous attention to detail with a thoughtful consideration of context, Sam Hecht and Kim Colin created Formwork in varying permutations, allowing some items to be kept out of view while others remain within reach, based on aesthetic considerations or frequency of use. The sophisticated forms, material production and colour palette indicate a level of thoughtfulness rarely brought to desktop goods. Each form is shaped in ABS plastic. Some pieces also include a non-slip silicone base.
