The conceptual 'Pen Fan' has been designed by Arman Emami of EMAMIDESIGN as a piece of stationery equipment that will enable designers to keep essential accessories on hand in a compact manner. The set comes as cross between a paint swatch collection and a pen set, and enables users to simply remove the color they need from the unit at their leisure. The flatpack design of the markers has each of the colors measuring in at just three millimeters a piece, which enables the whole set to be stored in a drawer or bag for use at any point.
The conceptual 'Pen Fan' speaks to the increasing demand for portable product varieties as more professionals seek to get work done outside of a formal workspace.
