Curva Pen is designed to get you hooked into loving writing again

You don’t have to suffer through the pain of using a common pen when you can have one that is designed to curve to your needs.

Pens come in all shapes, sizes, designs, and purposes, with some being minimalist beauties while others are sophisticated tools. Despite all those differences, the basic design of the pen has remained the same through the centuries, a design that seemingly favors people who write with their right hands. Even then, however, both left-handed and right-handed writers have suffered smudges and blotches, both on paper and on their hands. Redesigning the faithful wordsmith’s tool is long overdue, and one bold creator may have finally broken the code by turning the tip of the pen into something that is as smooth as its curves.

The moment you take off its cap, it is immediately evident that Curva Pen isn’t your typical ink pen and that it has an interesting story to tell. The unconventional hook-like shape of its nib might raise eyebrows, but its patented design was carefully thought out to solve two of the biggest problems with pens. More often than not, your fingers and hands block what you’re writing, especially if you’re a leftie that has to push the pen rather than pull like what right-handed people do. This makes not just writing but also drawing more cumbersome and more frustrating for some people, denying them the pleasure and the liberating experience of putting their thoughts down on paper clearly.

With its curved nib, this pen can be angled and directed any which way, giving writers the freedom and the joy of writing to the left, to the right, or even downward. In fact, Curva Pen isn’t just for writing, artists and designers will love using it just as much. Nothing inspires creativity more than a cool new tool that tickles and excites the mind to think outside the box, which is exactly what this Curva Pen represents.

Right-handed individuals looking for a more efficient way of writing.

Left-handed individuals who desire enhanced visibility and accuracy.

Designers, Artists and illustrators desire superior comfort and control at all angles.

It isn’t just the shape of the nib that’s special, though. Working together with the nib’s unique design, the high-quality quick-drying ink flows smoothly and evenly out of its tip, preventing ink from pooling and smudging even when you brush your palm against it. It doesn’t clog inside the pen either, so you get a smooth writing experience that Curva Pen’s distinctive shape tries to visualize. It’s like the smooth curve of a blade or harvesting tool that cuts through the task of writing like hot knife through butter.

There have been countless attempts at inventing new types of ink that won’t smudge or designing ink dispensing mechanisms that let the liquid flow like a gentle river, all in an attempt to improve the writing and drafting experience. Very few, however, have tried to address the pain of left-handed people in dealing with yet another reminder of how many products aren’t designed for them. It’s both curious and amazing that the answer would actually lie in the most unexpected design, one that attacks the problem right at the nib.

Best of all, you won’t even have to break your bank account to get your hands on this innovation, as a single pack of two Curva Pens, in either black or beige, will only cost you $25. That’s a tiny price to pay for the joy and peace of mind of a cleanly written out letter or a smudge-less drawing, turning writing into what it’s really supposed to be: a joyful endeavor.

This magnetic ink watch makes the journey of time much more visually interesting

The idea of a watch has always been to deliver the time to you in a quick manner so you can go about your day. The usual interaction is just to glance at your watch and get on with business, but the INK-MAGNETIC watch takes a much more different approach. Rather than telling you the time so you can rush to complete your tasks or get the day over with, the Ink-Magnetic watch captivates you and helps you appreciate the seconds and minutes rolling by.

The watch makes use of a ferrofluid chamber in its face, while magnetic hands manipulate the liquid from behind the scenes, creating a dynamic Rorschach-test-inspired piece of art that also happens to tell the time. In doing so, the Ink-Magnetic watch hopes to get you to pause for a bit and reflect on the beauty of time, instead of rushing through your day and not appreciating it!

The INK-MAGNETIC Watch is a winner of the Golden Pin Design Award for the year 2020.
