Clean Up that Unwanted Desk Clutter

refix_pen_holder_01

The problem with being an industrial designer or any designer at that is the abundance of pens, markers and all sorts of drawings implements lying around the desk is that you struggle to find the ones you REALLY like to use. It becomes like a disease, leaving one pen out after another. Jonghwan Kim knows this first hand, so much so he’s managed to design an attachable pen holder for the bottom of the PC screen to hold only your favorite/most popular drawing tools.

A perfect size to hold only a select few, the pen holder is removable and ready to move with you when you need to. Attached by a reusable adhesive strip, the pen holder can be used on the edge of your workbench too if you so wish. Cost efficient and a funky addition to any workspace, these pen holders are a surefire way to ensure only the most necessary drawing tools are in sight, clearing up a lot of unnecessary wasted space.
