Full Ballpoint Pen

Full Ballpoint Pen

Full Ballpoint Pen is an innovative writing instrument that exemplifies the harmonious fusion of form and function through its distinctive hollow out design language. Created by designers Lei Wang and Song Liu in Beijing during 2017, this sophisticated writing implement is crafted from aerospace alloy material using advanced manufacturing processes including CNC milling, surface blasting, and oxidation treatments. The pen's most striking feature is its slender hollow milled along the body, which reveals the internal metal refill while simultaneously serving ergonomic purposes. Weighing precisely 19 grams and measuring 15mm in width and depth with a height of 135mm, the Full Ballpoint Pen achieves an optimal balance between aesthetic appeal and human engineering principles. The thoughtfully conceived hollow design not only creates a visually engaging interaction between the pen's interior and exterior but also serves practical functions by preventing the pen from rolling when placed on flat surfaces. The design earned recognition with a Silver A' Design Award in the Art and Stationery Supplies Design category, acknowledging its innovative approach to everyday writing instruments. The pen's design philosophy explores the relationship between internal functionality and external appearance, offering users a fresh perspective on the writing experience by allowing them to observe the mechanical movements of the refill during use. This transparency in design creates a unique sensory experience while maintaining professional functionality, making it particularly relevant in an era where digital communication increasingly dominates.
