Pininfarina Speedform

A dynamic shape with progressive perforation, here is the poster item that expressed the concept for the entire Transition collection. The pattern transition stretches across the entire pen body, culminating in the central area. The surface perforation is designed to emphasize Ethergraf® technology, which requires no cartridges or refills inside the stylus. The section starts from the circular connection with the tip to veer toward the smoothed triangle, which outlines three theoretical ones in torsion, and goes again to closely into a circle at the end. A pattern that, in addition to citing the organic forms of contemporary architecture, is ergonomic in its grip.

The 3D printed aluminum makes the writing inst ument extremely light, and the progression perforation balances the ergonomics of the product, adding an interesting contrast of light and shadow. Speedform’s trick is a small magnet inserted in the area near the tip. This allows the instrument to remain balanced on its base, challenging gravity and increasing its dynamism.
