About 3D Buildmesh Kalamu ya Wino

Kuunganisha vipengele vya muundo wa usanifu majengo vya mstari katika usawa, kurudiwa, mdundo na uwiano, vilivyochochewa na alama mashuhuri, 30 St Mary Ax, London ya Uingereza, iliyotengenezwa kwa teknolojia ya utengenezaji wa kuongeza katika nyenzo ya chuma kisicho na kutu cha kiwango cha matibabu 316, inaunga mkono kikamilifu mwili mzuri wa kalamu wenye umbo la wavu bila nyenzo za kusaidia yoyote. Inaokoa mchakato wa usindikaji wa baadaye, matumizi madogo ya nyenzo, gharama na muda wa uzalishaji, ubinafsishaji na uzalishaji wa kiwango kidogo, ikitoa kalamu nyepesi, rahisi kutumia na nzuri yenye umuhimu, ikibadilisha kalamu ya kawaida iwe ya kipekee.

Data Collection: market research of usage scenario, Target user and writing behavior study, Pesona, Customer Journey.
Research tools: Solid Works, Rhino, Keyshot.
Impact: Sustainability wise in fountain pen industry.
Result: Create the ordinary pen extraordinary.
Inspiration: Human civilization is inherited through writing, and fountain pens are the king of writing tools. In today's era of digitalization and plasticization, the art of writing shows a precious and noble taste in classic fountain pen. Inspired by the balance, symmetry, towering and huge, and line sense of the architectural aesthetic structure system from the world-renowned landmark - 30 St Mary Ax, London, England, to create an elegance and warmth writing tool with artistic value.
Project Duration: The project research started in January 2021 in Tainan University of Technology, the very first prototype was exhibited in Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Department Store in March 2021, later was redesigned and marketing planning by designer team lead by prof.Chen in acdesign associates International Co.,Ltd in July 2021, the final product was launched and succeed in zec-zec crowdfunding platform in November 2021.
Operation Flow: In human history, architecture has been a symbol of the progress and development of human civilization; and the pen on the man’s pocket neckline is a symbol of personal identity. In the rapid development of informatic age, when most of the people are get use to the digital gadgets, the art of writing shows a precious taste. This fountain pen served as the legacy in the digital era, and is of great significance to anyone when receive as special gift.
