In line with the Japanese brand's signature style of minimalist and modern designs, the Nendo Stationery 2014 collection is comprised of a variety of office supplies that any adult would lust after. Although the desire for cool pencils, desk organizers and more seems to be something of a distant high school past, the Nendo Stationery 2014 line revives it admirably.
From re-imagining the traditional elastic band as a cube that stands on its own when not in use to a contrast ruler that works as easily on dark surfaces as it does on light, the Nendo Stationery 2014 collection doesn't just focus on looks. It also targets functionality. Available in Japan next month and worldwide from April, the stationery line could make work life much easier.
