To write, draw, generally mark a sign on a blank sheet of paper is something that no design or writing software will ever replace. It is also the passion of any respectable creative. Since always, Faber-Castell works for them, presenting new models in line not only with what the desks “ask” for but also with the trends in design and construction material. The new Pure Black e-motion has, for example, a dynamic shape, coloured in a deep and opaque black; the design is minimalist, with simple lines and a guilloche processing, a particular process of craftsmanship that gives the pen an original knurled aspect. Beside to ballpoint pen, rollerball and fountain pen, Pure Black is also propelling pencil for taking notes or make sketches. More traditional, but always with an eye to the future is Ondoro Smoked Oak, made, as the name suggests, of smoked oak wood. The surface is smooth and warm-coloured, while the hood and the two ends are in shiny chromed metal, for a daily tool of a certain style that also guarantees super-smooth writing.
