MAIN PURPOSE: Rest an open fountain pen without rolling

A low rest for fountain pens and brushes: lay a pen across one of the two cradles and the nib stays off the desk and the barrel cannot roll, so an uncapped pen can wait between sentences. Small enough to sit beside the notebook all day.

Kaidan Chest

MAIN PURPOSE: Store desk things in a stepped drawer chest

A desk-size kaidan dansu, the Japanese staircase chest: a three-drawer tower with ring pulls steps down to a 70 mm open tray beside it. Small things go in the drawers, the tray takes the keys and phone, and the stepped silhouette looks like furniture, not plastic.

Locktile Cup

MAIN PURPOSE: Lock pen cups together in any arrangement

The tall member of the Locktile system: a pen or brush cup with the same jigsaw outline, so cups lock to each other and into a field of Locktile Trivet tiles. Build a honeycomb desk caddy that lifts as one piece, then unclip a cup to carry it away.

Carriage Track

MAIN PURPOSE: Hold sliding desk modules in a captive rail

A desk rail that carriages ride in: a 240 mm channel open at both ends with an inward ledge along each long wall. Carriage pieces slide in from an end with their flanges under the ledges, so they glide along to wherever you want them but cannot tip out or be knocked off.

Golden Angle

MAIN PURPOSE: Hold pens of eight sizes apart on a phyllotaxis spiral

A pen pot whose top is a sunflower head: eight holes spiral out at 137.5 degrees, the angle plants use to pack seeds without gaps, and they grow from 7 mm for fine liners to 16 mm for brushes. Every pen gets its own hole, so tips never clash and the mix of sizes still packs tightly. Print it as shown, then turn it over so the floor becomes the top.

Ravenala Fan

MAIN PURPOSE: Fan letters and cards apart in seven slots

A letter and card fan drawn from the traveller’s palm, whose leaves open in one flat plane. Seven petioles rise from one root and splay apart, so every letter, card or bill drops into its own V, leans at its own angle and stays readable at a glance.
