Invest –
welcome present from Hessen
When an investor visits Hessen, he should be signing contracts by the end of his stay. As a symbol for this aim, the land of Hessen could be giving him a fountain pen as a gift.
This fountain pen uses classic techniques. The clip is its individual eye-catcher.
The material used, Corian, makes the fountain pen haptically appealing and of high quality. Contrasting Corian, Aluminium is used to rhythmically subdivide the proportions of the pen. The cherrywood represents the many meadows of Hessen.
Lightness was the main topic for this design. For each investor, an individual, associative notion from the field of lightness is engraved onto the fountain pen which then serves as his or her personal login to the site www.invest-in-hessen.de. On this internet portal, he receives privileged, “weightless” information, up to date reports, data and facts.
